Summary:                    cdr_custom produces incorrect csv format for clid
Description: 
The csv file produced when cdr_custom is enabled is incorrect and cannot be
parsed by any csv parser (including excel, open office, php, perl, etc.
etc.. The problem occurs in the handling of caller ID strings.

Take this example template for cdr_custom.conf. 

[mappings]
Master.csv => "${CDR(clid)}","${CDR(src)}","${CDR(dst)}"

This specifies quoted CSV. The problem is that the format of a caller ID
is
'"lastname, firstname" <123456>'
Which contains quoted text.  The cdr_custom file produced would look like
this...

""lastname, firstname" <123456>","123456","100"

The correct format (which is produced by Asterisk default logging) is...

"""lastname, firstname"" <123456>","123456","100"

Note that quotes (") are translated into two consecutive quotes ("").
