[SR-Users] PRACK support in RTPENGINE module?

[Daniel-Constantin Mierla]

Hello,

Chris mentioned that rtpengine_answer() is also not supporting (or is
ruling out all request types but ACK), so the C code is limiting in both
cases, no matter using rtpengine_manage() or rtpengine_answer().

The rtpengine manage() was built as a wrapper around offer()/answer()
and it makes the decision of which one is executed in various cases
(request/reply/failure route), but not what offer()/answer() functions
do internally.

So in this case the code has to allow execution for PRACK, it was an
omission, likely not a scenario that popped up so far.

Cheers,
Daniel
