Summary
-------
chan_iax2 registered a stack buffer with the dnsmgr, which stores it off to keep it up to date using periodic DNS lookups. This is bad and led to bizarre failures.
This was a regression in the merge of IPv6 support. The dnsmgr API now takes an ast_sockaddr instead of a sockaddr_in structure. To fix this, the address structure in the iax_peer structure needed to be changed to an ast_sockaddr. The patch is pretty much fixing up all of the ripple effects of changing that part of the peer structure.
This addresses bug 17902.

Testing
-------
I set up a few peers using dnsmgr in both IAX2 and SIP and verified that the addresses were populated properly. I tested an IAX2 registration, including the code that pulls the registration data back out of astdb. I also ran an IAX2 call. I did all of this under valgrind and found no problems.
Thanks,
Russell
