FreeSWITCH cookbook

This Chef cookbook installs FreeSWITCH either from source or packages and configures its basic settings. It is intended that this cookbook remain small and perform only installation tasks, with downstream cookbooks depending on it to configure FreeSWITCH for more specific tasks.
