Review request for Asterisk Developers.


Summary (updated)
-------

The originate action supports using channel variables. These are allocated to a variable "vars" but never freed. In the case of asynchronos or "fast" originate, these are handed off as a pointer to the new thread.

This patch 
 - Moves the allocation of the variables until after a few checks that will return (to not have to free multiple times).
 - Frees the variables in originate
 - copies the variables to the new thread, which frees it's own copy when done

Separate fix is made for trunk. The function ast_variable_copy really belongs to config.c/h, but since we don't change API in releases, it's in manager.c for now, and will move home in the trunk version. 

(Have fixed the red dots in my changes)
