### Description
The new contact mode introduced in
https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio/commit/8fed4c27a323e3b7fdc61381e06ac265d21fa5b9
has an "inverted" logic regarding A/B naming (downstream/upstream) directions.
In contact_mode 2:
xavu_field_a_contact and xavu_field_b_contact refers to the downstream /
upstream direction.
In contact mode 3:
xavu_field_a_contact_host and xavu_field_b_contact_host refers to the upstream
/ downstream direction, which is the opposite of the previous.
While you cannot use 2&3 at same time (...for now) I think proper naming helps
in understanding. Probably this cannot fixed anymore, but maybe worth
documenting this behaviour?
### Possible Solutions
At least add documentation for that difference. Ideally the meaning of A/B
should be aligned.
### Additional Information
* **Kamailio Version**
```
6.1.x
```
