Summary:                    Redirecting ;1 side of local channel during
optimisation causes double free of ;1 side and crash
Description: 
If the ;1 side of a local channel is redirected between the
ast_channel_masquerade call and the ast_do_masquerade call resulting from
the channel being answered and optimised, the ;1 side gets double freed
and, without MALLOC_DEBUG, free() calls abort(), crashing Asterisk.

Scenario.  With MALLOC_DEBUG enabled, use ChannelRedirect on the ;q side
of a local channel marginally after the ;2 side has been answered.

Expect. Redirect fails gracefully and optimisation completes.

Actual.  Sometimes the original ;1 side channel structure is freed twice. 
(With MALLOC_DEBUG not enabled, but using 1.6.1.0, free() calls abort() and
crashes Asterisk.)

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
Even with MALLOC_DEBUG there can be a subsequent crash.  I'm treating that
as secondary and not analysing it.

As a measure of reproducibility on my test rig, I got 3 out of the first
eight attempts ending in the double free.  Now to try the fix.
