Summary:                    [patch][post 1.4] New codec negotiation algorithm
Description: 
I'm not sure is this new feature or bug fix so I'm submitting this as
feature.

I did some work on codec negotiation issue. Asterisk behaves far from
perfect trying to negotiate codecs while some non-installed codecs is in
use (for example G723 or G729). Asterisk can transparently bridge such RTP
streams but not always reasonably does codec negotiation.
