Summary:                    revision r77858 breaks 'failed'-extension
functionality
Description: 
The function 'ast_pbx_outgoing_exten()' in pbx.c offers a possibility for 
creating a fake channel "OutgoingSpoolFailed" and running the PBX on the 
extension "failed" on it. However, only the first priority of this
extension in the dialplan gets executed, then 
this fake channel gets hung up. The reason for this is the 
'ast_check_hangup()' instead of 'c->_softhangup' in 'ast_pbx_run()'.

'ast_check_hangup()' additionally checks for the presense of
'chan->tech_pvt', 
and because fake channels do not have any PVT structures associated, the
value 
of that field is NULL, which then returns 1 as a function result, which
causes 
the exit from the main loop on priorities in 'ast_pbx_run()'.

Dummy PVTs for fake channels don't seem to be the best solution as the 
following piece of code in 'ast_channel_free()' would then be executed:

if (chan->tech_pvt) {
        ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "Channel '%s' may not have been hung
up properly\n", 
chan->name);
        ast_free(chan->tech_pvt);
}
