Summary:                    [patch] Event processing sometimes hangs when using
res_timing_pthread
Description: 
There's a bug in the pthread timing code which sometimes blocks event
processing.

Triggered thus:
* queue event to channel (DTMF for instance).
  pthread_timer_enable_continuous() gets called.
* Set an explicit rate (play dial tone). State switches to
TIMER_STATE_TICKING.
* Drop the rate (stop playing). State switches to TIMER_STATE_IDLE.
* Since the continuous timeout has thus been disabled, even though
  pthread_timer_disable_continuous() has never been called, the
unprocessed
  events (digits for overlap dialing) languish in the channel.

Fix:
* Setting an explicit rate just remembers the intended rate when the
  timer state is TIMER_STATE_CONTINUOUS.
* pthread_timer_disable_continuous() restores that rate.


Patch attached, probably applicable to 1.6.0 and trunk.

Fix a problem where continuous mode will get inadvertently get turned off
if set_rate()
is used while continuous mode was already turned on.
