The OriginateAction generates an outgoing call to the extension in the given
context with the given priority or to a given application with optional
parameters.<br/>
If you want to connect to an extension use the properties context, exten and
priority. If you want to connect to an application use the properties
application and data if needed. Note that no call detail record will be
written when directly connecting to an application, so it may be better to
connect to an extension that starts the application you wish to connect to.<br/>
The response to this action is sent when the channel has been answered and
asterisk starts connecting it to the given extension. So be careful not to
choose a too short timeout when waiting for the response.<br/>
If you set async to true Asterisk reports an OriginateSuccess-
and OriginateFailureEvents. The action id of these events equals the action
