Summary:                    [patch] new REALTIME_STORE() and REALTIME_DESTROY()
functions
Description: 
This patch adds new dialplan functions, which utilize store&destroy RT API.


REALTIME_STORE(family,field)=value
creates a new record in the RT storage, and sets field to value specified
on the right.

SET(XXX=${REALTIME_DESTROY(family,field,value)})
acts in the same way as REALTIME(), except that it removes matched record
from RT storage.

otherwiseguy, i wrote documentation before the function itself :)

when i start to code i realized 2 things:

1. There is no way to generate va_list during runtime, so we can't have
variable list of parameters in dialplan function, unless we change an API
and remove all references to va_list structures.

2. Asterisk doesn't provide a method for returning a value in this style:
Set(RESULT=${MYFUNC(a,b,c)=d})
I suppose that parser simply is not capable of handling such
constructions, however i'm not sure here.


i fixed documentation in this patch. As of other changes: i've read on
mailing list that smaller commits are preferable, so if you won't mind -
i'll open a separate issue for API changes (which are required to enable
support for variable argument list in REALTIME*() functions).
