What is faxdetect=outgoing and faxdetect=both do?

It does exactly what is says... it enables faxdetect based on the direction the channel was setup (incoming, outgoing, or "doesn't matter"). 'outgoing' is used in some applications to redirect outgoing FAXes to a local FAX server, or to do store-and-forward FAX. It's not as necessary as it used to be... when the only channel that had 'faxdetect' functionality was chan_zap/chan_dahdi, 'outgoing' mode was necessary to be able to catch all outgoing FAXes (and redirect the incoming channel to a different destination in the dialplan). Now that chan_sip has 'faxdetect' as well, many usages of 'outgoing' in chan_dahdi are no longer necessary.
