[SR-Users] REST API to initiate a call in Kamailio

[Alex Balashov]

Kamailio isn't really meant to initiate calls -- it's a SIP proxy.

It does have at least one gruesomely hacky way of doing so anyway:

https://kamailio.org/docs/modules/5.4.x/modules/dialog.html#dialog.f.dlg_bridge

And you can trigger it via the JSONRPC interface via HTTP using the 
`jsonrpcs` and `xhttp` modules:

https://kamailio.org/docs/modules/5.4.x/modules/dialog.html#dlg.r.bridge_dlg

https://kamailio.org/docs/modules/5.4.x/modules/jsonrpcs.html

https://kamailio.org/docs/modules/5.4.x/modules/xhttp.html

But if you ask me, this is a really, really bad idea, and the API call 
in question should be going out to the B2BUA, not to Kamailio. :-)
