Description:The two functions have similar bugs:
- ast_recvtext() will leak a frame if it receives a HANGUP frame,
 or the malloc fails.
- ast_recvchar() will leak a frame if it receives a HANGUP frame,
 and will misinterpret chars >= 0x80 as errors.

This patch fixes both issues, and implements ast_recvchar()
as a wrapper around ast_recvtext(). The performance implications
(an extra strdup that could be saved) are very limited and
the function is used only once in res_agi so it is certainly
not on the critical path of some heavily used loop.
In return we remove a relatively long and duplicated piece of code.
