Summary:                    [patch] Fix for Sonus DTMF issues
Description: 
In some cases when Asterisk sends DTMF to Sonus platforms as RFC2833, Sonus
will not recognize the DTMF.  Several articles have identified the problem
as being the gap in the audio prior to the DTMF packets being sent.  This
patch sends a single G.711 ulaw packet prior to the rfc2833 packets.  In
our testing across with two carriers (Level3 and 360 Networks) this patch
fixed our DTMF issues.  The rtp.c file seems very similar for the 1.4
branch, so minor changes could also be applied there.  I added an option to
the rtp.conf file to enable this fix, called rtpfixdtmf.  Attached are both
the rtp.c fix, and the rtp.conf change.

djensen99: Well, the patch seems to be doing what it is supposed to--there
are no gaps in the RTP. The only thing that I can see that isn't perfect
would be that after the DTMF is sent it seems like there is one extra
packet sent with no delay at all, and the marker bit is properly set, so I
wouldn't expect there to be any problem.
