<p>[agent] Sematic fixes to SNMP-USER-BASED-SM-MIB.
The semantics allow the <c>usmUserAuthKeyChange</c> and
<c>usmUserPrivKeyChange</c> objects to be written to in the
same set requests that also creates and clones the user.
This was not possible beforehand, causing test tools checking
semantic SNMPv3 behaviour to fail on a lot of test cases. </p>
<p>Furthermore, once the user has been cloned by writing to an
instance of <c>usmUserCloneFrom</c>, further set-operations to
the same object will not return an error, but be no-ops.
Especially, it must be avoided to copy security parameters
again (possibly even from a different user). </p>
