This patch adds the option to give a module a load priority. The value represents the order in which a module's load() function is initialized. The lower the value, the higher the priority. The value is only checked if the AST_MODFLAG_LOAD_ORDER flag is set. If the AST_MODFLAG_LOAD_ORDER flag is not set, the value will never be read and the module will be given the lowest possible priority
on load. Since some modules are reliant on a timing interface, the timing modules have been given a high load priorty.

This document specifies the timing modules available in Asterisk beginning
with Asterisk 1.6.1. The document goes into detail about the differences
between each and gives a general overview of what timing is used for in
Asterisk. There is also a section which can be used to help customize
your setup or to troubleshoot timing issues you may have.
I also added messages to the DAHDI timing test used in res_timing_dahdi.c
that points to this new documentation if people experience problems.
Big thanks to all who contributed comments on this.

1) Add module use count handling so that timing modules can be unloaded.
2) Implement unload_module() functions for the timing interface modules.
3) Allow multiple timing modules to be loaded, and use the one with the
highest priority value.
4) Report which timing module is being use in the "timing test" CLI command.

This provides a new timing interface. In order to use it,
you must be running a Linux with a kernel version of
2.6.25 or newer and glibc 2.8 or newer.
This timing interface is a good alternative if a timing
source is necessary (e.g. for IAX trunking) but DAHDI is
otherwise unnecessary for the system.
For now, this commit contains the actual work done in the
res_timing_timerfd branch. There are no notices in the README
or CHANGES files yet, but they will be added in my next commit.
The timing API of Asterisk also needs to have a bit of work done
with regards to choosing which timing interface to use. This commit
makes the choice a build-time decision, by only allowing one of
the timer interfaces to be chosen in menuselect. It would be preferable
if the choice could be made at run-time, however. The preferred timing
interface could be loaded and tested, and if it does not work, choice
number two may be used instead. That sort of thing. That is beyond
the scope of work in this branch though.

- change ast_settimeout() to honor max rate in edge cases of file playback
(this will make some warning messages go away at the end of playing back
a file)

allow tonezone to live in a different place than DAHDI/Zaptel, since dahdi-tools and dahdi-linux are now separate packages and can be installed in different places
don't include tonezone.h in dahdi_compat.h, because only a couple of modules need it
get app_rpt building again after the DAHDI changes

- Convert chan_iax2 to use the timing API
- Convert usage of timing in the core to use the timing API instead of
using DAHDI directly
- Make a change to the timing API to add the set_rate() function
- change the timing core to use a rwlock
- merge a timing implementation, res_timing_dahdi
Basic testing was successful using res_timing_dahdi
