chan_sip: Do not allow non-SP/HTAB between header key and colon.

RFC says SIP headers look like:

    HCOLON  =  *( SP / HTAB ) ":" SWS
    SWS     =  [LWS]                    ; sep whitespace
    LWS     =  [*WSP CRLF] 1*WSP        ; linear whitespace
    WSP     =  SP / HTAB                ; from rfc2234

chan_sip implemented this:

    HCOLON  =  *( LOWCTL / SP ) ":" SWS
    LOWCTL  = %x00-1F                   ; CTL without DEL

This discrepancy meant that SIP proxies in front of Asterisk with
chan_sip could pass on unknown headers with \x00-\x1F in them, which
would be treated by Asterisk as a different (known) header.  For
example, the "To\x01:" header would gladly be forwarded by some proxies
as irrelevant, but chan_sip would treat it as the relevant "To:" header.

Those relying on a SIP proxy to scrub certain headers could mistakenly
get unexpected and unvalidated data fed to Asterisk.

This change fixes so chan_sip only considers SP/HTAB as valid tokens
before the colon, making it agree on the headers with other speakers of
SIP.
