[Asterisk-code-review] Add API for channel frame deferral. (asterisk[14])

George Joseph has uploaded a new change for review. ( https://gerrit.asterisk.org/4340 )

Change subject: Add API for channel frame deferral.
......................................................................

Add API for channel frame deferral.

There are several places in Asterisk that have duplicated logic
for deferring important frames until later.

This commit adds a couple of API calls to facilitate this automatically.

ast_channel_start_defer_frames(): Future reads of deferrable frames on
this channel will be deferred until later.

ast_channel_stop_defer_frames(): Any frames that have been deferred get
requeued onto the channel.

ASTERISK-26343
