Summary:                    CDR user fields not updated and CDR() returns
invalid data when using Queue with "c" flag
Description: 
When Queue() is called with the "c" flag (continue dialplan after agent
hangup):
1. assignments made to CDR(...) values from the h extension are not
written to the database; these are the userfield and all additional custom
fields (used with  adaptive_odbc).
2. CDR() fields are reset to defaults. These are CDR(billsec),
CDR(duration), CDR(disposition) -- possibly more.

Well the thing with CDRs is that we're trying not to change them anymore.
Everytime we "fix" something for one person, we break CDRs for someone
else.

CDRs were never designed for the complex call flows that some people
expect to use them for. CEL was designed for that very issue, so for
complex call scenarios like the one described here, CEL is a much better
option.
