when using check_snmp with multiple oids it simply printed the unparsed content
from -w/-c into the thresholds for each oid. So each oid contained the hole -w
from all oids.
./check_snmp ... -o iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.3.0,iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.5.0 -w '1,2' -c '3,4'
before:
SNMP ... | HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrSystemInitialLoadDevice.0=393216;1,2;3,4 HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrSystemNumUsers.0=24;1,2;3,4
after:
SNMP ... | HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrSystemInitialLoadDevice.0=393216;1;3 HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrSystemNumUsers.0=24;2;4
This also applies to fixed thresholds since check_snmp translates negative infinities from: '~:-1' to '@-1:~'
When check_by_ssh runs into a timeout it simply exits keeping all child processes running.
Simply adopting the kill loop from runcmd_timeout_alarm_handler() fixes this.

As it is possible to use capabilities(7) on linux or solaris
privileges for example, it is not necessary in all cases to
have those binaries making use of setuid.
check_snmp becomes capable of evaluating negative values properly,
but it might be returning CRITICALs where it used to return OK and was ignored,
if a negative value turns out to actually be a valid value.
If negative values are valid, this can be worked around,
by adding "~:" to the warning/critical threshold : 100 -> ~:100
If a plugin still has suid privileges at the time np_enable_state() is
called, the MP_STATE_DIRECTORY environment will be ignored.
There is no need for a NEWS entry as no suid plugins use np_enable_state
yet.
This is an initial take at renaming the project to Monitoring Plugins.
It's not expected to be fully complete, and it is expected to break
things (The perl module for instance). More testing will be required
before this goes mainline.
This patch makes use of standard threshold functions. This allows using
doubles as thresholds.
Since SNMP supports only integers, double precision numbers are only
printed when parsed from a STRING type.
In addition, support for printing properly Timeticks type has been added,
and the code has been thoroughly cleaned.
