Summary:                    [patch] Only one custom feature can be executed
simultaneously
Description: 
On an asterisk server, there can be only one feature executed
simulatenously.

Ex: in feature.conf

define a feature such as

[applicationmap]
playmessage => **3,,callee,Macro,play-long-message

in extention.conf, define the attached macro

[macro-play-long-message]
exten => s,1,Playback(longmessage)

If you call in an extention with this feature activated (in the variable
DYNAMIC_FEATURE), the macro can be triggered by pressing '**3'.

If you make a second call to the same extention and try to trigger the
SAME macro / feature, the second chan hangs until the first chan has
completed the execution of the feature.

Thanks for the patch.  However, the fix here is going to have to be a bit
more complicated.  The way that this patch works, a crash could occur,
because there is no longer anything ensuring that the feature being
accessed doesn't get deleted due to a reload.

The fix I would like to see here is to convert the features to astobj2
objects.
