[Serdev] Path support

[Greger V. Teigre]

Bogdan and Michal,
Thanks for a good thread, I'm following with interest!

Just a quick comment to 
http://www.iptel.org/attribute_value_pairs_and_selects

I have a documentation contribution in the works that introduces avpairs 
and selects in "layman terms" that probably should replace the above 
snippet (which is not meant as a reference, but was a starting point for 
documenting avps and select for Ottendorf)
g-)
