* Create Meeting (create)
*
* @param ARRAY $params
* Associative array of additional url parameters. Components:
* - name: STRING (REQUIRED) A name for the meeting.
* - meetingID: STRING A meeting ID that can be used to identify this meeting
* by the third party application. This must be unique to the server that
* you are calling. If you supply a non-unique meeting ID, you will still
* have a successful call, but will receive a warning message in the
* response.
* - attendeePW: STRING The password that will be required for attendees to
* join the meeting. This is optional, and if not supplied, BBB will assign
* a random password.
* - moderatorPW: STRING The password that will be required for moderators to
* join the meeting or for certain administrative actions (i.e. ending a
* meeting). This is optional, and if not supplied, BBB will assign a
* random password.
* - welcome: STRING A welcome message that gets displayed on the chat window
* when the participant joins. You can include keywords (%%CONFNAME%%,
* %%DIALNUM%%, %%CONFNUM%%) which will be substituted automatically. You
* can set a default welcome message on bigbluebutton.properties
* - dialNumber: STRING The dial access number that participants can call in
* using regular phone. You can set a default dial number on
* bigbluebutton.properties
* - logoutURL: STRING The URL that the BigBlueButton client will go to after
* users click the OK button on the 'You have been logged out message'.
* This overrides, the value for bigbluebutton.web.loggedOutUrl if defined
* in bigbluebutton.properties
* - maxParticipants: NUMBER The maximum number of participants to allow into
* the meeting (including moderators). After this number of participants
* have joined, BBB will return an appropriate error for other users trying
* to join the meeting. A negative number indicates that an unlimited
* number of participants should be allowed (this is the default setting).
* @return OBJECT or FALSE
* - meetingID: STRING The meeting ID supplied by the third party app. It
* must be used in conjunction with a password in subsequent calls for
* joining or otherwise modifying a meeting's status.
* - attendeePW: STRING The password that will be required for attendees to
* join the meeting. If you did not supply one, BBB will assign a random
* password.
* - moderatorPW: STRING The password that will be required for moderators to
* join the meeting or for certain administrative actions (i.e. ending a
* meeting). If you did not supply one, BBB will assign a random password.
