>     optional_api: Fix linking problems between modules that export global symbols
> {noformat}
> the nonoptreq is not being used anymore.
> Because no one uses it, it is not updated either and may start to contain stale info.
> For instance: Asterisk 13.23 chan_sip contains nonoptreq=res_crypto,res_http_websocket
> but only res_http_websocket is actually used.
> Test (compile without OPTIONAL_API support in compiler flags):
> {noformat}
> *CLI> module load chan_sip.so 
> Unable to load module chan_sip.so
> Command 'module load chan_sip.so ' failed.
> [2018-09-11 10:34:25] WARNING[29777]: loader.c:583 load_dlopen: Error loading module 'chan_sip.so': /usr/lib/asterisk/modules/chan_sip.so: undefined symbol: ast_websocket_ref
> [2018-09-11 10:34:25] WARNING[29777]: loader.c:1182 load_resource: Module 'chan_sip.so' could not be loaded.

> chan_sip.so                    Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)        0          Running              core
> res_http_websocket.so          HTTP WebSocket Support                   2          Running          extended
> 2 modules loaded
> {noformat}
> As far as I can tell, the res_crypto requirement there is outdated (I did not find any source refs to it in any other channel driver than chan_iax2.c).
> I suggest we:
> - blank out all the nonoptreq values in the current branches ({{"<unused>"}})
> - remove the parameter altogether in master
