Summary:                    [patch] Patch adds REAL duration and billsec to CDR
Description: 
Adds call duration and billsec in floating type which gives exact time, not
rounded as default CDR implementation.

This functionality is essential to bill calls correctly.

You need to submit new features patches against the SVN trunk version.

Most, if not all, legacy PABXes only log durations to a second, and many
of them only log start times to a minute, so I think that saying it is not
acceptable in most cases is an overstatement, although, as a pure new
feature, it is harmless.

There is some risk from the excessive accuracy.  The two sides of a SIP
connection could disgree by 100s of milliseconds as to when the call
started or ended.  Actually it could be many seconds if the nominal final
packet was lost.
