Summary:                    Optional timeout parameter is not optional
Description: 
The documentation shows that Queues should be called as follows:

Queue(queuename[|options[|URL][|announceoverride][|timeout][|AGI])

However, if timeout is left empty or set to 0, the queue times out
immediately.

e.g.:

exten => s,1,Queue(queue-test|ti||||update-queue)

The logged in agent gets a very short ring then the call sits in the queue
for a few seconds then goes to the next priority after the Queue
statement.

I think that this:

        /* set the expire time based on the supplied timeout; */
        if (args.queuetimeoutstr)
                qe.expire = qe.start + atoi(args.queuetimeoutstr);
        else
                qe.expire = 0;

should actually be:

        /* set the expire time based on the supplied timeout; */
        if (!ast_strlen_zero(args.queuetimeoutstr))          
                qe.expire = qe.start + atoi(args.queuetimeoutstr);
        else
                qe.expire = 0;

I tried this above and it seemed to fix the problem. Diff is in additonal
info.
