Review request for Asterisk Developers and Russell Bryant.


Changes
-------

new approach to the AST_TEST_DEFINE macro issue using attribute_unused.  Thanks to mnicholson and russell for the suggestion.


Summary
-------

The Unit Test Framework is a new API that manages registration and execution of unit tests in Asterisk with the purpose of verifying the operation of C functions.

The Framework consists of a single test manager accompanied by a list of registered test functions defined within the code.  A test is defined, registered, and unregistered from the framework using a set of macros which allow the test code to only be compiled within asterisk when the TEST_FRAMEWORK flag is enabled in menuselect.  This allows the test code to exist in the same file as the C functions it intends to verify.  Registered tests may be viewed and executed via a set of new CLI commands.  CLI commands are also present for generating and exporting test results into xml and txt formats.

For more information and use cases please refer to the documentation provided at the beginning of the test.h file.
