[sr-dev] TM possible deadlock

Hello,

iirc, there are several functions that script writer can use, like 
t_reply_callid() from tmx. The idea is to analyze a bit in order to 
detect if a forced reply may end up in canceling some pending branches 
-- the reply on the branch doesnt matter anymore and should not be 
considered anymore for relaying upstream, because the script writer 
already decided what to send out.

Cheers,
Daniel
