chan_iax2: Set plaintext auth to deprecated as per ASTERISK-22820

Starting from draft 2 of RFC 5456 (October 23, 2006) plaintext auth
is not supported in IAX2 protocol. Please refer to section 8.6.13 of
RFC 5456.

But plaintext auth is still supported by Asterisk implementation of IAX2.
This support should be dropped.

Patch, based on asterisk-dev discussion, adds deprecation warning on
startup if 'auth' is set to 'plaintext', changes default values of
'auth' from 'md5, plaintext' to 'md5'.

Patch is safe in terms of backwards compatibility, will work even if
remote peers have auth=plaintext and we have defaults.

auth=plaintext setting will remain deprecated in Asterisk 14 and 15,
and IAX2 plaintext support will be removed in Asterisk 16.

ASTERISK-22820 #close
