Initial Comment:
This patch is a diff against the current head of the
tree but it ought to apply to v4-2-patches with only
trivial changes (if any).

Synopsis:

  sysName.0, sysLocation.0, sysContact.0 made
persistent to /var/ucd-snmp/snmpd.conf using
"psysname", "psyslocation", "psyscontact" tokens. 
These are NOT intended to be used in regular
configuration files and as such are not advertised.

  If config parsing finds BOTH a syslocation token (in
e.g. /usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf) and a
psyslocation token, the value from the syslocation
token has precedence, and a warning is emitted.

  If a syslocation token is found, this is in a file
that snmpd is not able to modify.  Therefore changes to
sysLocation.0 cannot be made persistent, and therefore
the logic is that they should not be allowed at all. 
wrongValue is returned in this case when a SET is
attempted.  (?? is this the best value -- what about
notWritable ??)

  Otherwise, setting sysLocation.0 causes a
psyslocation token to be written to
/var/ucd-snmp/snmpd.conf (immediately and also at
shutdown).
