Summary:                    [patch] SIP Forking Feature
Description: 
This feature enables a user to register from multiple locations and there
by allows forking of a SIP call.

Registration entries are maintained as a list in peers.
Registration refreshes of the same user are checked and updated
accordingly. New registrations of the same user from different location
will be added as a list in sip_peer structure.

An outgoing call is checked against the number of peers registered from
peer list and the invite is forked to all the location from where the user
is registered. Only the fisrst successful 2xx will establish a call, and
other forked calls will be terminated.

I will be happy, if exist some possibility to register device from same
account name multiple times and that asterisk will automatically start call
forking. It will be very usefull feature for service providers, because
customers often wants to have multiple phones at home, and creating
multiple accounts for one real user isn't good solution for both, users and
providers.
