Description:I've observed that when a SIP device responds to an INVITE with a 183 without
ever sending a 180 the outgoing channel remains in the Down state rather than
moving to Ring[ing].  This prevents Pickup() from picking up the call.  I did
some extensive Google searching to try to understand the Pickup() failures and
generally found a lot of reports where Pickup() seemed to work in some cases
but not in others.  I wonder if this could be the root cause of some of the
confusion.

By adding AST_STATE_DOWN to the test in app_directed_pickup.c I was able to
get Pickup() to work with SIP devices (in this case the FXS port on a Cisco
router) that behave as above; however, I have no idea what collateral damage
this might cause.  It feels like there should be some other state for call
progressing.

I am using 1.4.11 as provided in the FreeBSD 6.3 port.  I apologize if this
has already been addressed in a newer version.  I checked 1.4.22 and the
code appeared the same.

It's possible that it was fixed somewhere besides that code.

Please try the latest version.

Well, 1.6.0.1 exhibits the same behavior and the same "fix" works.  I'm
not sure if that is the latest version in the sense that there are
different branches in play along with various betas and release candidates.
If you have a specific version in mind that might behave differently let
me know and I'll try it.

Add 'down' as a valid state for directed call pickup. This creeps up when we receive session progress when dialing a device and not ringing.
