  fixes chan_iax2 race condition
  
  There is code in chan_iax2.c that attempts to guarantee that only a single
  active thread will handle a call number at a time.  This code works once
  the thread is added to an active_list of threads, but we are not currently
  guaranteed that a newly activated thread will enter the active_list immediately
  because it is left up to the thread to add itself after frames have been
  queued to it.  This means that if two frames come in for the same call number
  at the same time, it is possible for them to grab two separate threads because
  the first thread did not add itself to the active_list fast enough.  This
  causes some pretty complex problems.
  
  This patch resolves this race condition by immediately adding an activated
  thread to the active_list within the network thread and only depending on
  the thread to remove itself once it is done processing the frames queued to
  it.  By doing this we are guaranteed that if another frame for the same call
  number comes in at the same time, that this thread will immediately be found
  in the active_list of threads.
