 * \brief Wait for Silence
 * - Waits for up to 'x' milliseconds of silence, 'y' times \n
 * - WaitForSilence(500,2) will wait for 1/2 second of silence, twice \n
 * - WaitForSilence(1000,1) will wait for 1 second of silence, once \n
 * - WaitForSilence(300,3,10) will wait for 300ms of silence, 3 times, and return after 10sec \n

/*** DOCUMENTATION
 <application name="WaitForSilence" language="en_US">
 <synopsis>
 Waits for a specified amount of silence.
 </synopsis>
 <syntax>
 <parameter name="silencerequired">
 <para>If not specified, defaults to <literal>1000</literal> milliseconds.</para>
 </parameter>
 <parameter name="iterations">
 <para>If not specified, defaults to <literal>1</literal>.</para>
 </parameter>
 <parameter name="timeout">
 <para>Is specified only to avoid an infinite loop in cases where silence is never achieved.</para>
 </parameter>
 </syntax>
 <description>
 <para>Waits for up to <replaceable>silencerequired</replaceable> milliseconds of silence,
 <replaceable>iterations</replaceable> times. An optional <replaceable>timeout</replaceable>
 specified the number of seconds to return after, even if we do not receive the specified amount of silence.
 Use <replaceable>timeout</replaceable> with caution, as it may defeat the purpose of this application, which
 is to wait indefinitely until silence is detected on the line. This is particularly useful for reverse-911-type
 call broadcast applications where you need to wait for an answering machine to complete its spiel before
 playing a message.</para>
 <para>Typically you will want to include two or more calls to WaitForSilence when dealing with an answering
 machine; first waiting for the spiel to finish, then waiting for the beep, etc.</para>
 <para>Examples:</para>
 <para>WaitForSilence(500,2) will wait for 1/2 second of silence, twice</para>
 <para>WaitForSilence(1000) will wait for 1 second of silence, once</para>
 <para>WaitForSilence(300,3,10) will wait for 300ms silence, 3 times, and returns after 10 sec, even if silence
 is not detected</para>
 <para>Sets the channel variable <variable>WAITSTATUS</variable> to one of these values:</para>
 <variablelist>
 <variable name="WAITSTATUS">
 <value name="SILENCE">
 if exited with silence detected.
 </value>
 <value name="TIMEOUT">
 if exited without silence detected after timeout.
 </value>
 </variable>
