For Music on Hold classes that are not files mode, meaning that we are executing
an application that will feed us audio data, we use a thread to monitor the
external application and read audio from it. This thread also makes use of the
MoH class object. In the MoH class destructor, we used pthread_cancel() to ask
the thread to exit. Unfortunately, the code did not wait to ensure that the
thread actually went away. What needed to be done is a pthread_join() to ensure
that the thread fully cleans up before we proceed. By adding this one line, we
resolve two significant problems:
1) Since the thread was never joined, it never fully goes away. So, on every
reload of non-files mode MoH, an unused thread was sticking around.
2) There was a race condition here where the application monitoring thread
could still try to access the MoH class, even though the thread executing
the MoH reload has already destroyed it.
