Summary:                    ast_unescape_semicolon causes SIP NOTIFY to loop for
snom-check-cfg and snom-reboot
Description: 
When executing a SIP NOTIFY, the called message from sip_notify.conf is
read and "unescaped" by calling utils.c/ast_unescape_semicolon. Most
notifies don't contain semicolons but snom-check-cfg and snom-reboot.

The first SIP NOTIFY sip-check-cfg works fine but executing this command a
second time results in the SIP NOTIFY is being executed and hanging in a
loop. The Asterisk process starts to consume 100% CPU and needs to get
restarted.

This is caused through an error in utils.c/ast_unescape_semicolon which
parses through the notify message and replaces the "\;" by ";". This works
fine the first time, the command is called but any further initiation
results in a loop as all semicolon are already "unescaped". 

The code finds a ';' in the variable e but the if-statement is false as no
matching '\\' exists at (e-1). Therefore the while condition stay true for
ever. Please under "additional information" for a bug fix.
