Big improvement for app_directory. This patch breaks the do_directory function up

so that it is more easily parsed by the human brain. It also fixes some errors. I'll quote
dimas from the original bug description:

"app_directory contained some duplicate code even before addition of 'm' option. Addition of that option doubled amount of that code. Worst of all, there are minor differences between these code block and bugs caused by these differences.

1. There is a memory leak. In the 'menu' mode, result of the convert(pos) function is not freed while it should be.
2. In the 'menu' mode check for OPT_LISTBYFIRSTNAME flag ('f' option) is not negated as result, application works in the mode opposite to what user expect (checking last name when user wants the first nd vice versa).
3. select_item function plays message for user using res = func1() || func2() || func3()... construct. This construct loses the actual value returned by ast_waitstream() for example so at the end, res does not contain digit user dialed while listening to the message.
4. (also in 1.4) application announces entries from voicemail.conf/realtime separately from entries from users.conf. I see no reason why doing so instead of building combined list.
5. Alot of duplicated code as already mentioned."

This was tested by dimas and I (I tested under valgrind). A word of caution: any bug fixes that happen
in app_directory in 1.4 will almost certainly not merge cleanly into trunk as a result of this, but it is
well worth it. 

Huge thanks to dimas for this wonderful submission.
