Summary:                    [patch] Allow a simple lookup for hint extensions
Description: 
Currently, all hints must contain only expressions which do not depend upon
a channel definition, since hints may be called without a channel. 
However, since hints are always context- and extension-specific, there
should be a way to reference those indicated values when evaluating a hint.

I'm trying your patch with this ael syntax:

context linestates {
        hint(SIP/322) 322 => NoOP;
        hint(SIP/324) 324 => NoOP;
        hint(SIP/408) 408 => NoOP;
        hint(SIP/743) 743 => NoOP;
        hint(SIP/${EXTEN}) _ZXX => NoOP;
}

but seems, that is not working, 'core show hints' shows:

                   _ZXX at linestates          : SIP/${EXTEN}         
State:Unavailable     Watchers  0
                    743 at linestates          : SIP/743              
State:Unavailable     Watchers  0
                    408 at linestates          : SIP/408              
State:Idle            Watchers  0
                    324 at linestates          : SIP/324              
State:Idle            Watchers  0
                    322 at linestates          : SIP/322              
State:Unavailable     Watchers  0


and when I tried subscribe to monitor extension eg. 777, it often crashes
asterisk and on eyebeam this extension is offline all the time...
monitoring others extension, from example above, is working fine...

eyebeam 1.5.16
