This patch allows individual dialplan functions to be marked as
'dangerous', to inhibit their execution from external sources.

A 'dangerous' function is one which results in a privilege escalation.
For example, if one were to read the channel variable SHELL(rm -rf /)
Bad Things(TM) could happen; even if the external source has only read
permissions.

Execution from external sources may be enabled by setting
'live_dangerously' to 'yes' in the [options] section of asterisk.conf.
Although doing so is not recommended.

(closes issue ASTERISK-22905)

+===========================
+Avoid Privilege Escalations
+===========================
+
+External control protocols, such as Manager, often have the ability to get and
+set channel variables; which allows the execution of dialplan functions.
+
+Dialplan functions within Asterisk are incredibly powerful, which is wonderful
+for building applications using Asterisk. But during the read or write
+execution, certain diaplan functions do much more. For example, reading the
+SHELL() function can execute arbitrary commands on the system Asterisk is
+running on. Writing to the FILE() function can change any file that Asterisk has
+write access to.
+
+When these functions are executed from an external protocol, that execution
+could result in a privilege escalation. Asterisk can inhibit the execution of
+these functions, if live_dangerously in the [options] section of asterisk.conf
+is set to no.
+
+For backwards compatibility, live_dangerously defaults to yes, and must be
+explicitly set to no to enable this privilege escalation protection.
