FreeSWITCH Week in Review (Master Branch) September 26th-October 2nd

Hello, again. This past week in the FreeSWITCH master branch we had 90 commits! Most of the features for this week went toward the verto communicator and are: created a source map file, created the reset banner action, floor and presenter badges, and locked icon in floorLocked status, added an About screen with version information and links to FS.org and added a link to Confluence with documentation for VC, and made mute/unmute audio/video clickable. Other features this week include: refactoring the local_stream API to be more consistent and add auto complete, compatibility with Solaris 11 process privileges, improvements to the way FEC info is detected within frames by adding support for ptimes higher than 20 ms for FEC detection and improvements to jitter buffer debugging in mod_opus.
