Description
-------

This changeset:

- adds sort=randstart (next to sort=, sort=random, sort=alpha)

- combines duplicate moh option parsing code into a single function

- adds deprecationwarnings for application=r to sort randomly

- adds deprecationwarnings for random=yes to sort randomly

- removes invisible code that was supposed to stay until 1.8 
  ("These names were deprecated in 1.4 and should not be used until
    after the next major release")


The sort=randstart works like sort=alpha, except we start at a random
position.

That means that playlist order will be respected while you don't need
to listen to the same song every time you dial in.


I considered also adding a sort=shuffle which does a shuffle where
sort=alpha now does the qsort. But that would probably only be useful
for those few people that use uncached (realtime) classes.

Testing
-------

Tested that sort=, sort=alpha, sort=random, sort=randstart all work as
promised.

(Testing was done on an asterisk-10 branch with uncached realtime moh.
But the code in trunk is exactly the same, apart from the
ast_format_cache_get to ast_format_cache_get change.)


Checked that the new option 'randstart' fits within the current alembic
DB schema. It does:

    op.create_table(
        'musiconhold',
        sa.Column('name', sa.String(80), primary_key=True, nullable=False),
...
        sa.Column('sort', sa.String(10)),
        sa.Column('format', sa.String(10)),
        sa.Column('stamp', sa.DateTime())
    )


Thanks,
