    Document the return value for this typedef.

    This documentation conflicts with the prototype.

    Note that there should be an empty line after declarations. Apply this below as well.

    This is unnecessary since there are no symbols that match it.

> The big piece missing for me to finally transition to pjsip was the ability to mirror the auto provisioning features of res_phoneprov.  The first step (this patch) is to make res_phoneprov more modular so other modules (like pjsip) can provide configuration information instead of res_phoneprov relying solely on users.conf and sip.conf.  To accomplish this a new ast_phoneprov public API is now exposed which allows config providers to register themselves, set defaults (server profile, etc) and add user extensions.

> Since res_phoneprov is also it's own provider, examples of what a new provider would have to do are in load_users() in res_phoneprov.c.  Those functions gather the information from users.conf and sip.conf and call the ast_provider_register and ast_phoneprov_add_extension apis.

> If the provider wants to reload it can simply unregister and reregister or it can call its own load_users callback.
> If res_phoneprov wants to reload, it iterates over its registry and calls the providers callback.
