Summary:                    [branch][post 1.4] Allow caller to dial 1-9 while
leaving voicemail
Description: 
Currently, app_voicemail will allow you to fall out to the o and a
extension by pressing 0 and * respectively while leaving a voicemail.  This
patch allows the user to press 1-9 and falls out to the extensions vm1-vm9
based on the number pressed.  It uses the same logic that existed in
app_voicemail.c for the a and o extensions.  The patch was created on
1.2.7.1, but patches svn 24053 just fine.

When the user presses 0-9 or *, app_voicemail sets the channel variable
VMMAILBOX to the vmu->mailbox.

We created this patch to allow users to say "I am currently away from my
desk, press 1 to reach my cell phone or 0 for the operator," as well as any
other scenarios we/you can think of.  The application will set VMMAILBOX to
the mailbox that was being accessed so the dialplan can handle the logic of
dealing with what cell phone number to dial, or whatever action needs to be
taken.

FYI: I'm working on this today.  I just figured out how to extend the
number pressing into the recording of the message itself.  Keep your
fingers crossed and I should have a patch this afternoon.
