Summary: Added snmpwalk support to check_snmp

Initial Comment:
* Using snmpwalk (instead of snmpget or snmpgetnext) 
allows a dynamic number of like OID's to be checked 
from a single parent OID (and thus a single nagios 
check_command).

  For example, a stackable Cisco 3750 switch will 
expose a sub OID containing the power supply status of 
each swtich in the stack under the 
1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.13.1.5.1.4 OID:

  Without snmpwalk you'd have to build a separate 
check_command (using check_snmp) to query each 
OID individually for every switch in the stack.

  With the snmpwalk patch you simply query the parent 
OID with the new --walk switch.
