    _______________________________________________________

Details:

The SNMP code is hard to read since it is not cleanly separated (and/or
named).

It consists of the SNMP agent (plus protocol parsing functions), mib2
structure and the integration of the snmp change triggers/callback functions
into the rest of the stack (and the netif drivers).

To clean this up, I'd change the MIB2 triggers to be more portable (i.e. to
integrate a different SNMP agent plus MIB2 into lwIP) and move the rest of
SNMP to a location outside of the core code (it's an application protocol,
after all, not a core component of an IP stack).

That new location would be a new directory next to 'core', 'api' and 'netif'.

Also, mib2 could share some of the counters with LWIP_STATS to prevent the two
drifting apart (and to reduce the code impact of calling multiple incrementing
functions throughout the stack).
