Summary:                    [patch] Add the immediate=yes option to chan_iax2
Description: 
IAX phones and devices (such as the IAXy) are cool.  When you pick up the
phone, a message is sent (even before you dial), and just like on the DAHDI
FSX devices, code gets executed.

DAHDI has "immediate=yes" so that when you pick up the phone, you get
connected directly to the "s" extension.  This is useful for lobby phones,
elevator phones, manual service (number please), etc.

It was nearly trivial to implement in chan_iax2.c.  I made a deliberate
decision to only implement it for users/friends who authenticate (as any
properly connected phone or ATA would).  Simply add "immediate=yes" in the
friend or user definition, and when you pick up the phone, instead of
dialtone, you go right to extension "s" in the appropriate context.

Adds immediate yes/no option to iax.conf

This is very similar to the DAHDI immediate=yes option.  When the phone is
picked up, instead of giving a dialtone it connects directly to the "s"
extension.  Changes where implemented in chan_iax2.c to directly connect to
the "s" extension in the appropriate context when this option is enabled. 
Examples explaining its use are added to iax2.conf.sample.  CHANGES has
been updated as well.
