how does agispeedy work

example : 
exten => 123456,n,AGI(agi://127.0.0.1/demo_dynamic?number=7890)

* asterisk send socket request scriptname demo_dynamic with args
* agispeedy get one child to response asterisk
* child find demo_dynamic static module in memory
* child find demo_dynamic.dam in /agispeedy/var/
* child do args parse and push to hash table
* child synatx checking and complie demo_dynamic.dam
* child run entry function demo_dynamic()
* child exit
