Summary:                    [patch] Background() when called from AGI script no
longer gives digit code when interrupted
Description: 
When calling the Background application from within an AGI script, asterisk
no longer returns the character value of a digit pressed while the audio
file is still being played.

This means if a user does not wait for the audio file to finish before
pressing a digit, it's impossible to find out what was pressed.

  Add a flag to disable the Background behavior, for AGI users.
  This is in a section of code that relates to two other issues, namely
  issue https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=14011 and issue
https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=14940), one of which was the behavior of
  Background when called with a context argument that matched the current
  context.  This fix broke FreePBX, however, in a post-Dial situation.
  Needless to say, this is an extremely difficult collision of several
  different issues.  While the use of an exception flag is ugly, fixing
all
  of the issues linked is rather difficult (although if someone would like
  to propose a better solution, we're happy to entertain that suggestion).
