Summary:                    Non-existent include in extensions.conf halts
processing of conf file
Description: 
Reproduced on Asterisk 1.6.2.13:

An invalid include in the extensions.conf file will halt processing of the
file.  Includes below the non-existent one will not be included.  I'll
include a reproducible example on a FreePBX installation.

For example:

extensions_custom.conf (itself an include of extensions.conf) contains:

#include /opt/isymphony/server/isymphony.conf
#include extensions_dynagents.conf

[from-internal-custom]

exten => 1234,1,Answer()
exten => 1234,n,Milliwatt()

On this box, the isymphony.conf file does not exist.  The
extensions_dynagents.conf does exist.

In this case, config will simply ignore everything below the invalid
include.

In the full log, the following error is thrown:

ERROR[8818] config.c: The file '/opt/isymphony/server/isymphony.conf' was
listed as a #include but it does not exist.

None of the code below the invalid include is processed, including the
contexts and the include below it.

Barring I use case I haven't considered, I would expect the error should
be thrown as it is currently, but I would prefer that the configuration
file continues to be processed assuming it is valid syntactically.

I haven't investigated a fix, but if people concur, I would be willing to
produce a patch.

This is intentional.  There could be serious damage done if there is a typo
in your config and we continue as if nothing happened.
