Subject: [PATCH] channels/chan_iax2: Improve POKE expiration time calculation
 for lossy networks

POKE is used to check for peer availability; however, in networks with packet
loss, the current calculations may result in POKE expiration times that are too
short. This patch alters the expiration/retry time logic to take into account
the last known qualify round trip time, as opposed to always using a static
value for each peer.
