Update extensions.lua.sample with naming conflict guidance.

The sample extensions.lua was causing pbx_lua to fail to load when parsing
'app.goto("default", "s", 1)' because in Lua 5.2, 'goto' is now a reserved
word.  This patch adds guidance to extensions.lua.sample and changed
'app.goto("default", "s", 1)' to 'app.['goto']("default", "s", 1)'.

-- Note about naming conflicts:
-- Lua allows you to refer to table entries using the '.' notation,
-- I.E. app.goto(something), only if the entry doesn't conflict with an Lua
-- reserved word. In the 'goto' example, with Lua 5.1 or earlier, 'goto' is
-- not a reserved word so you'd be calling the Asterisk dialplan application
-- 'goto'. Lua 5.2 however, introduced the 'goto' control statement which
-- makes 'goto' a reserved word. This casues the interpreter to fail parsing
-- the file and pbx_lua.so will fail to load. The same applies to any use of
-- Lua tables including extensions, channels and any tables you create.
--
-- There are two ways around this: Since Lua is case-sensitive, you can use
-- capitalized names, I.E. app.Goto(something) to refer to the Asterisk apps,
-- functions, etc. Or you can use the full syntax, I.E. app["goto"](something).
-- Both syntaxes are backwards compatible with earlier Lua versions. To make
-- your Lua dialplans easier to maintain and to reduce the chance of future
-- conflicts you may want to use the app["goto"](something) syntax for all
-- table accesses.
