Subject: [snmp/agent] enable SNMP to create missing database directories

Add {db_init_error, create_db_and_dir} option to SNMP manager and
agent. This allows them to create any missing parent directories for
db_dir, rather than treating any missing directories as a fatal error.

The default for db_init_error, which is terminate, is unchanged.

Add create_db_and_dir to the documentation.

Add new tests to verify that using create_db_and_dir results in missing
parent directories being created.
