Normally, we would not backport features into 1.4, but, I was convinced by the
justification supplied by the supplier of this patch. He pointed out that this
patch removes a requirement for running as root, thus reducing the potential
impacts of security issues.

rizzo brought up some issues related to the way that the metadata required
for menuselect and the rest of the build system is extracted from the source
files. Since I had a few hours to kill on an airplane today, I decided to
improve this situation... so now the system caches the extracted metadata
and uses it to build the menuselect 'tree' as much as it can. The result
of this is that when a single source file is changed, only the metadata for
that file needs to be extracted again, and the rest is used from the cache
files. I also reduced the number of forked processes required to do the
metadata extraction; it was actually possible to do most of what we needed
in the Makefiles themselves without using any shell scripts at all! On my
laptop, these changes resulted in an 80% decrease in the time required
for the 'menuselect.makeopts' automatic check to occur after editing a single
source file.
While doing this work I also cleaned up a few minor things in the Makefiles,
adding a check for 'awk' to the configure script and changed all remaining
places we use 'grep' or 'awk' to use the ones found by the configure script,
and changed the 'prep_tarball' script to build the menuselect metadata so
that tarballs of Asterisk will include it and won't require the user to
wait while it is extracted after unpacking.

compiler is being used, then a warning will show up for any modules still using
the old name "private" instead of "_private".

in the 1.2 version of libpri. This will prevent the configure script from thinking
that it has compatible libpri support for Asterisk 1.4, when it actually does not
because the installed version is from 1.2.

still can't build *_odbc.so!", check for ltdl directly, instead of just listing
it as another library to include in the unixodbc check in the configure script.
This also makes ltdl show up as a dependency in menuselect so people know what
to go install. (related to issue #9989, patch by me)

sure the results from curl-config can be used to compile successfully. This is
intended to help prevent a situation where you are cross compiling, and the
configure script finds the curl library installed on the host.

Asterisk GUI project, we need a fully functional HTTP interface with access
to the Asterisk manager interface. One of the things that was intended to be
a part of this system, but was never actually implemented, was the ability for
the GUI to be able to upload files to Asterisk. So, this commit adds this in
the most minimally invasive way that we could come up with.
A lot of work on minimime was done by Steve Murphy. He fixed a lot of bugs in
the parser, and updated it to be thread-safe. The ability to check
permissions of active manager sessions was added by Dwayne Hubbard. Then,
hacking this all together and do doing the modifications necessary to the HTTP
interface was done by me.

* add a check for linux/mISDNdsp.h to configure.ac and update the autogenerated files: 'configure', 'autoconfig.h.in'
(the 'configure' script was not in sync with the latest configure.ac, so the diff is a bit bigger than expected).

* Convert most of the doc directory into a single LaTeX formatted document
so that we can generate a PDF, HTML, or other formats from this
information.
* Add a CLI command to dump the application documentation into LaTeX format
which will only be include if the configure script is run with
--enable-dev-mode.
* The PDF turned out to be close to 1 MB, so it is not included. However, you
can simply run "make asterisk.pdf" to generate it yourself. We may include
it in release tarballs or have automatically generated ones on the web site,
but that has yet to be decided.

Also, update the configure script to make sure that we don't try to build
chan_zap if the installed version of zaptel does not include ZT_EVENT_REMOVED.

for gsm.h as well. Furthermore, when checking for this header, it may be
located in a gsm/ sub directory, so check for that, as well.

curses, termcap, or tinfo are further passed along to the editline configure
script. This fixes some cross-compilation environments.
