[arm-allstar] spanning config parameters over multiple lines

[David McGough]

Hi Barry,

The asterisk *.conf files are very rudimentary "INI" style key/value 
files.  

Splitting lines using a backslash isn't proper syntax.  Here are articles 
describing the generalized file format:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INI_file

Note that I'm not sure if all the formatting explained in the Wikipedia
article is supported in Asterisk. The Asterisk version 1.4.x file parser
is pretty rudimentary.
