Summary:                    [patch] Many retransmits when chan_sip generates
multiple outstanding requests
Description: 
I opened issue 10946 in october http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=10946 on
the same subject, but it was closed last week, together with issue 9567 and
issue 10915 (sorry, I was away last week).

All 3 issues were closed when chan_skip rev 89097 was committed. This
revision adds support for one outgoing transaction with the new
"lastnoninvite" field.

So, I have given a try to modification brought by chan_skip rev 89097. But
it does not solve the retransmit problem for me.

Typically, try with a series of SendText(ABC) in your extensions.conf :
the SIP peer will never respond quickly enough, and all (except last)
MESSAGE messages will be retransmitted. Silly test, but easy to reproduce
!
The problem also most probably still occurs when REFER handling provokes
too many and too quick NOTIFY messages (not re-tried yet, but new
"lastnoninvite" can handle one NOTIFY only).

Consequently, I propose another patch : this one won't remove code :-) but
it will add a few more lines instead, in order to cancel retransmits when
chan_sip receives a "late" response.

I know, it does not respond to file's dream of "a chan_sip with real
transaction support" :-)
