Summary:                    Register statement in sip.conf does not accept slash
in user part (valid per RFC 3261)
Description: 
The definition of the user part of a SIP URI from Section 25 (page 221) of
RFC 3261 is:

user             =  1*( unreserved / escaped / user-unreserved )
user-unreserved  =  "&" / "=" / "+" / "$" / "," / ";" / "?" / "/"

note specifically that "/" is "user-unreserved" and can be specified
without any escaping.

One of my providers requires the following _valid_ SIP URI for
registration:

sip:abcd/efgh at provider.net

This results in the error message

Format for registration is
[peer?][transport://]user[@domain][:secret[:authuser]]@host[:port][/extension][~expiry]
at line n

I am temporarily working around the problem by disabling the check for the
'/'
 in  AST_NONSTANDARD_RAW_ARGS(pre2, pre1.userpart, '/'); but if
"transport://" is to be accepted in a register statement, looking for it is
going to have to be done more carefully, since _any_ character (even the
first) of the "user" part may be a slash.  It should be possible to look
for the three character string "://", since ":" is NOT one of the valid
user part characters.  Watch out though: it is a valid part of a password
-- but a reasonable restriction would be that the password for the register
must be in the "secret=" of a corresponding sip.conf [section] referenced
in the host part.
