Summary:                    [patch] Allow called parties to continue after the
caller has hung up
Description: 
The attached patch adds a 'c' flag to Dial application that allows the
called party to continue in the dialplan after the channel that initiated
the Dial has hung up.  This can be useful if a Manager API program bounces
the callee into an IVR, and then the caller wishes to detach from that
session.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
Has the patch been tested? From what I can all that it is going to do is
not hang up the peer, but dialplan execution is not going to continue
running. Essentially this sounds like a feature request for the 'g' flag,
except to continue execution if the source channel hangs up instead. The
implementation would be harder though since the thread executing dialplan
logic would be on the wrong channel. It would be helpful if the reporter
could show the dialplan that would benefit from this feature to ensure the
desired result can not be produced another way.
