[asterisk-ss7] Libss7 Status Update

[Attila Domjan]

Hi Matthew,

I looked into docs/sorcecode and I have some questions about libss7.

Is it support (ITU):

- signalling link inhibition/uninhibition Q.782 7.1.1, 7.1.2, 7.2.1,
7.2.2, 7.6.1

- dual seizure handling Q.784 2.1.1, 2.1.2

Regards,
Attila Domjan
