Summary:                    Ability to enforce voicemail minimum password
lengths
Description: 
This patch adds a configuration keyword "minpassword" to the voicemail.conf
file.  The default is 3 characters, DEFINE'd in the beginning of
app_voicemail.c.

When a user sets or changes their password via the phone, this minimum
will be checked.  If it does not meet minimum requirements, the recording
"vm-invalid-password" will be played.  That recording will need to be
created, as I just used a dummy one for testing.

There is probably value in both approaches.  This one (12090) does a simple
string compare, so it has very little compute overhead compared to a
fork/exec of another script that must then do the evaluation.  The script's
benefit is that it puts validation into the hands of the administrator, not
the developer.
