[cisco-voip] call queue light (BLF) for UCCX calls in queue

On the lighting of MWI or something else, I used a Place Call step when
entering the queue to signal there were calls in queue. If the caller hung
up or got answered, the script would go back to the top, hit the On
Exception, ContactInactiveException step, and use a GoTo to another part of
the script where a reporting statistic would check for the number of calls
in queue.

I've attached a santized version of the entire script. This is from 2008,
and I was newish to scripting, so be kind :-).
