chan_sip: Prevent deadlock when performing BYE with Also transfer.

When a BYE with an Also header is successfully processed, and the sender
of the BYE is bridged with another channel, chan_sip will unlock the
owner of the dialog on which the BYE was received, call ast_async_goto()
on the bridged channel, and then re-lock the owner. The reason for this
locking behavior is that ast_async_goto() can result in a masquerade,
which requires that the involved channels are unlocked.

The problem here is that this causes a locking inversion since the
dialog's lock is held when re-locking the owner channel after the async
goto. The lock order is supposed to be channel and then sip_pvt.

The fix proposed is simple. In addition to unlocking the owner channel
before the ast_async_goto() call, also unlock the sip_pvt. Then relock
both after ast_async_goto() returns, being sure to lock the channel and
then the sip_pvt.
