[sr-dev] [SR-Users] is $td.did avp a normal avp?

perhaps this has something to do with the flags of $td.did avp that seem
to be

flags = AVP_TRACK_TO | AVP_CLASS_DOMAIN

i modified avpops avp_print() to print AVP with those flags and called
it at the and of branch route and at the beginning of onerply route.  i
got to syslog

this shows that $td.did was set at the end of branch route, but not at
the beginning of onreply route, which seems to indicate that avps with
flags AVP_TRACK_TO | AVP_CLASS_DOMAIN are not saved/restored with the
transaction.

i then tried to read tm module code and found this kind of line in
t_hooks.c:

set_avp_list(AVP_CLASS_DOMAIN | AVP_TRACK_TO, backup_dom_to );

which seems to indicate that those avps would be saved, but clearly that
is not the case.

i'll switch this to sr-dev list in the hope that there is someone left
who knows what is going on and how also AVP_TRACK_TO | AVP_CLASS_DOMAIN
avps can be saved/restored with the transaction?
