Summary:                    Extensions configuration is not being sorted
correctly
Description: 
The matching performed on extensions.conf is not sorting the items as
expected.

Take this example:

[test-ext]
exten => _.,1,NoOp(Match 1)
exten => s-Nothing,1,NoOp(Match 3)
exten => _s.,1,NoOp(Match 2)
exten => _s-.,1,NoOp(Match 4)

The result of:
[test-ext]
exten => _.,1,NoOp(Match 1)
exten => s-Nothing,1,NoOp(Match 3)
exten => _s.,1,NoOp(Match 2)
exten => _s-.,1,NoOp(Match 4)

Is:
— Executing [s-Test at test-ext:1] NoOp("Local/s-Test at test-ext-0cbc;2",
"Match 2") in new stack

I would expect the match to occur on Match 4, this is the closed match
based on the number of items to match on.

Swap them around:
[test-ext]
exten => _.,1,NoOp(Match 1)
exten => s-Nothing,1,NoOp(Match 3)
exten => _s-.,1,NoOp(Match 4)
exten => _s.,1,NoOp(Match 2)

And this is the output:
— Executing [s-Test at test-ext:1] NoOp("Local/s-Test at test-ext-5f64;2",
"Match 4") in new stack

It appears to be inconsistent in applying the matching as I would expect
regardless of entry position, the same results to occur due to the
matching.
