Description:Currently, when it comes to taking a substring, we define a negative value to mean that we want the entire of the remainder.  What we should do, though, is to allow a negative to mean that we want that amount of characters left off the end.  This change simplifies the dialplan, such that the following substitution can be made:

${EXTEN:0:$[${LEN(${EXTEN}) - 1]}

${EXTEN:0:-1}
