Summary:                    Deadlock in do_monitor() of chan_sip
Description: 
Unfortunately I have no steps to reproduce this. Had about 30 calls going
through, all calls are SIP, and randomly ran into a SIP deadlock (`sip show
channels` would cause console to hang, no new SIP calls would begin).

It sort of looks like `dialoglist` is an infinite loop (every member
points to at least one other member, there is never a ->next that points to
null), but I don't see how that could happen in the code so I'm not sure.

I did get `core show locks` output a few times, and I have a modified
version that provides the time of the last time each lock was
locked/unlocked. This is interesting because we can see lock
https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=0 never
changes and is held for multiple minutes before I restart, but lock
https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=1
changes constantly.

The fact that lock https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=1 (lock on
dialog->sip_pvt) is constantly changing in
do_monitor makes me think `dialoglist` is an infinite loop.

Above, I mention I think dialoglist is an infinite loop. I do NOT know this
for sure, it's just an estimation based on what I'm seeing in the locks and
the timestamps associated.

I would have checked in gdb but you can see above my core was useless.
