Support for strong encryption protocols for SNMPv3

    Description

      It's not possible to use strong encryption algorithms like SHA256 for SNMPv3 monitoring, although the underlying net-snmp package supports those from version 5.8 at least.
      Currently only "usmHMACSHA1AuthProtocol" is used.
      It's probably best to introduce all encryption and authentication options supported by net-snmp package, but some of these are only available since version 5.8 of net-snmp.
