Bug#485805: Add backticks.so CMD please

[Arie Skliarouk]

Package: asterisk
Version: 1:1.4.19.1~dfsg-1

I am using popular backticks command on asterisk. The command is described
in detail at following URLs
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+cmd+Backticks
http://henryjunior.com/blog/?p=18

Unfortunately, the corresponding shared object is not packaged in debian
asterisk package. I have compiled the module manually and confirm that it
works.

For some reason there is no astxs script anywhere, so it took me some time
to understand how to compile the backticks.so module.
Compile the attached file backticks.c using following commands:
gcc -c -fPIC backticks.c -o backticks.o
gcc -shared -Wl,-soname,backticks.so -o backticks.so backticks.o

Then package the resulting backticks.so into modules directory
/usr/lib/asterisk/modules/
