Summary:                    Memory leak in iax2-parser.c
Description: 
We have found compiling asterisk without LOW_MEMORY has a memory leak in
iax_frame_new. It seems that the AST_LIST_TRAVERSE_SAFE_BEGIN macro is not
traversing the linked list in good way.
We have traced adding some ast_log in the code that iax_frame_free add
buffers in the frame cache linked list and after that iax_frame_new does
not find this free buffer in the list and allocates a new buffer with
ast_calloc_cache.
With the time and with our system, that receives too many calls, asterisk
gets all the available memory in the system and produces an error.
If we compile with LOW_MEMORY, then this piece of code is not compiled and
asterisk does not have memory leaks.
