Summary:                    [patch] app_queue: Give members a penalty time for
not answering
Description: 
This patch adds a new option notpresent-penalty option on queues.conf,
which sets how many seconds of penalty a member will get for not answering
in time.

Say you have a queue with current setup:

penalty, member
0, member1
0, member2
1, member3

If both member1 and member2 have left their phones, and forgot to log out,
a normal queue would loop between these two users, trying to get them to
answer. With this patch, they will be given a penalty when they don't
answer, and so the queue will go to the next penalty level if neither
member1 or member2 is answering their calls.

It's also useful so you don't "hammer" a phone with calls, when the user
obviously isn't there ;P
