Summary:                    [patch] Agent doesn't propagate device state changes
from underlying device.
Description: 
Given a SIP phone logged in with AgentLogin, and monitored with qualify, if
you remove the power on the phone (or, presumably, unplug it from the
network) Asterisk detects that the phone has become unavailable, but the
agent continues to receive calls, resulting in callers going into a black
hole.

Ideally, I believe that the agent should detect the state change on the
underlying device and change its own state to logged off, and therefore
generate a state change to CHANUNVAIL.  This would result in correct
hinting for the agent's state.

Using basename is OK for us, but I'm not sure that chan->name is useful,
even for agent callback, as chan->name will always be a channel name rather
than just technology/address.

I'd guess you'd have to use hints for agent callback, but then the agent
extension might have a list in its Dial command.
