[Asterisk-Dev] IAX2 trunk really should send timestamps as part of iax2_meta_trunk_entry..

In my mind we'll only ever get dejittering and the trunking code to play 
nicely once the trunking code gives each enclosed frame its own timestamp.

That's on the basis of hours of thought, working through examples and 
traces etc.

You can maybe put lots of heuristics in and mostly get the reconstructed 
timestamps right - but not 100%.

And the timestamps are crucial to the correct functioning of the jitter 
buffer.

Mark feels it can be done, and also doesn't want to agree because of the
"wire cost"  of the extra info.

But I can't see how.
