I looked it over and decided that'd be a good idea. This occurs in ast_srtp_unprotect, and there is some really bad use of goto there to make an oddly formed loop, but it looks like this is bypassed if srtp_create ever fails

At present, when we then run ast_srtp_destroy, attempting to dealloc this can cause Asterisk to crash. This patch addresses that by setting the session pointer to NULL so ast_srtp_destroy doesn't attempt to dealloc it.
