Summary:                    [patch] Add ability to use extension state as well
as device state when adding queue memebers
Description: 
The new ability to add a device state associated with a Queue member when
configuring a queue or adding a member with AddQueueMembers solves a lot of
problems. However, it would be EXTREMELY valuable to use extension state
information as well (e.g. hints).

hints are extensively used in may dialplans to track extension state of a
system. This ability becomes even more important when you have a pbx that
supports 'hot-desking' where a user can log into and out of one or multiple
devices.

It would be extremely valuable, and from what I understand, relatively
straight forward, to add this ability such that conceptually you could an
entry such as:

member => Local/3000 at default,0,John Smith,HINT:3000 at default

and the queue would parse that this is a hint instead of a device, and use
ast_extension_state() instead of ast_device_state()
