chan_rtp:  Accept hostname as well as ip address as destination

The UnicastRTP channel driver provided by chan_rtp now accepts
"<hostname>:<port>" as an alternative to "<ip_address>:<port>"
in the destination. The first AAAA (preferred) or A record resolved
will be used as the destination. The lookup is synchronous so beware
of possible dialplan delays if you specify a hostname.
