      improved translation paths for wideband codecs
      
      The problem I'm addressing is that Asterisk's current
      method of building the least cost translation paths
      between codecs does not take into account sample rate.
      For instance, it was possible for siren14 (a 32khz codec),
      to contain the a translation path to siren7 (a 16khz
      audio codec) that goes through slin at 8khz.  In this
      case Asterisk takes a 32khz codec, down samples it to
      8khz and then up samples it to 16khz which is terrible
      regardless if it is computationally less expensive.  This
      patch now builds translation paths that give priority to
      maintaining the best possible sample rate before taking
      into consideration computational cost.  This patch also
      adds cli commands to expose what translation paths are
      actually being used.
      
      Changes:
      1. Translation paths will never contain a step that changes
      the sample rate unless absolutely necessary.
      2. When choosing the best codec to make two channels compatible.
      Shared codecs with the highest sample rate are given priority.
      3. A new cli command to show all translation paths available
      for a specific codec 'core show translation paths [codec name]'
      has been added.
      4. 'core show translation' which displays the translation
      matrix now includes the new higher bit audio codecs in the table.
      5. 'core show channel [channel name]'  now displays the
      translation paths if translation is used.
