Major rewrite of native SNMPv3 CommandGenerator and NotificationOriginator
applications towards the following goals: * avoid bonding with particular SNMP engine instance to promote single app instance using many SNMP engine instances * support two APIs for working with request data: one operates on the whole PDU object while the other on PDU contents * keep callback context data in stack rather than in stateful application cache * newly introduced sendVarBinds() method offers a more functional and logical signatures. * keep backward compatibility for all existing major/documented interfaces

- Critical error fixed in key localization procedure for AES192/AES256/3DES

- Execution Observer facility implemented to give app an inside view
of SNMP engine inner workings. This is thought to be a generic
framework for viewing (and modifying) various internal states
