Summary:                    Incomplete CDR lock
Description: 
This is all about the meaning of AST_CDR_FLAG_LOCKED flag for CDR. 
I assume if CDR has this flag set then it wont be updated anymore by any
ast_cdr_ functions except cases when we force such update. ast_cdr_reset()
is example of function which allows to update locked CDRs if special flag
is given.

Based on this assumption I prepared the patch with such changes:

  ast_cdr_setvar() - not allowed to touch locked CDRs. I don't see any
cases when we need to change locked CDRs too. Not touching locked CDRs is
helpfull when ForkCDR being used and every new CDR may have different
custom variables.

  ast_cdr_answer() - don't change status of locked CDRs. That might be
helpfull when we have a chain of CDRs for one incoming call for which we
perform several tries to make outgoing call. Every outgoing attempt may
finish with its own completion code. And if the final attempt is 'answered'
then we have only one CDR with 'answered' status. All other will keep
connection error codes which is very helpful for error monitoring.

 ast_cdr_end() - don't change locked CDRs by the same reason as
ast_cdr_answer()

As there will be no changes in CDR after lock, app_forkcdr.c should be
updated to end original locked CDR.
Also it'll be great to make optional cdr reset in this application, but
thats a theme for another patch.

OK, I take it back. ForkCDR() is *not* the only place in the code that 
chains CDRs. There is some going on in the chan_sip and chan_zap channel
drivers.
I'm working on CDR bugs in 1.4, and trunk, and 1.6.0 that will remove
these
cdr_append calls, at least in chan_zap.c; I may do the same in
chan_sip.c.
Until then, I've added the 's' option (I didn't notice previously that
the
CDR() func used the 'u' option already for raw time formatting.)

So, I've attached a new diff patch that includes the code nec. to 
add and obey the 's' (skip LOCKED cdr's) option, in the CDR() func.
