Summary:                    [patch] DNS SRV lookups causing re-registration
problems
Description: 
SIP peer uses DNS SRV records which list multiple entries for
_sip._udp.domain.  

Asterisk is selecting one and successfully registering with it.  When
attempting to re-register, Asterisk is not selecting the same host. 
Instead it is ALWAYS selecting another host, sending seven SIP REGISTER
requests to it, then failing over to the next (correct) host, at which
point the re-register succeeds.  However, this process exceeds the
registration expiry and the registration is timing out on every
re-registration cycle.

Peer in question is callcentric.com.

Fix logic regarding when to perform an SRV lookup for outgoing REGISTER
requests

With this fix, we only will perform an SRV lookup at the following times:

* The first time we register with a remote registrar
* If we send a REGISTER but do not receive a response
* If the sendto() function returns an error

While I wrote the patch that fixes this issue, a huge amount of credit is
due
to Brett Bryant, who wrote the initial patch on which I based this one.
