Resolve crashes due to large stack allocations when using TCP

Asterisk had several places where messages received over various network
transports may be copied in a single stack allocation. In the case of TCP,
since multiple packets in a stream may be concatenated together, this can
lead to large allocations that overflow the stack.

This patch modifies those portions of Asterisk using TCP to either
favor heap allocations or use an upper bound to ensure that the stack will not
overflow:
 * For SIP, the allocation now has an upper limit
 * For HTTP, the allocation is now a heap allocation instead of a stack
   allocation
 * For XMPP (in res_jabber), the allocation has been eliminated since it was
   unnecesary.

Note that the HTTP portion of this issue was independently found by Brandon
Edwards of Exodus Intelligence.
