Summary:                    Memleak with every incoming SUBSCRIBE.
Description: 

The Contact address of every incoming SUBSCRIBE is stored im memory.
It happen in when calling "parse_ok_contact" in "handle_request_subscribe"

I simply removed the call to parse_ok_contact, because i dont need the 
contact header in the URI in NOTIFY's because i have a opensips between
the phones and asterisk. that's a working workaround for me.

To reproduce this issue, do the following:

Run the attached perl script, that fire out 1000 SUBSCRIBE's
(make sure you have a hint for that extension, and answer to the
SUBSCRIBE's is a 200 OK)
Then let asterisk do a coredump with kill -6 <asterisk_pid>
Then search for the string "memleak" which is part of the contact
address in the 1000 SUBSCRIBE's.

strings <coredumpfile> |grep memleak

the you will see 1000 lines with the same contact address.

So when you have 1000 phones, and every phone has some activ
SUBSCRIBE, then after a week asterisk use 200MB memory just
to store millons lines of contact addresses. 

I work with 1.4 but probably this issue is in all other asterisk versions
