[snmp|agent] Add a get-mechanism callback module (and a corresponding behaviour). The agent calls this module to handle each get (get, get-next and get-bulk) request.

The test result when a hook function fails is in general the same as if the function that the hook is associated with fails. For example, if post_init_per_testcase fails the result is that the test case is skipped, as is the case when init_per_testcase fails.This, however, was earlier not true for timetrap timeouts or other error situations where the process running the hook function was killed. This is now corrected, so the error handling should be the same no matter how the hook function fails.

- OTP-15551
-
- Application(s):
- erts, otp
Fixes of install/release phase in build system.
-- The source tree was modified when installing/releasing and/or applying a patch.
-- Some files were installed with wrong access rights.
-- If applying a patch (using otp_patch_apply) as another user (except root) than the user that built the source, the documentation was not properly updated.

Minor fixes for make clean.

In some rare cases, when two common_test nodes used the same log directory, a timing problem could occur which caused common_test to crash because it's log cache file was unexpectedly empty. This is now corrected.

Two new common_test hook functions are introduced:
post_groups/2, which is called after Suite:groups/0 post_all/3, which is called after Suite:all/0
These functions allow modifying the return values from the groups/0 and all/0 functions, respectively.
A new term, {testcase,TestCase,RepeatProperties} is now also allowed in the return from all/0. This can be used for repeating a single test case a specific number of times, or until it fails or succeeds once.

- Application(s):
- erts
Add missing documentation of new external tags NEW_PID, NEW_PORT and NEWER_REFERENCE introduced in OTP 19.
These new tags are planned to be "activated" in OTP 23 when distribution capability flag DFLAG_BIG_CREATION becomes mandatory. Older nodes (>= 19) are able to decode these new tags and send them back to the new node. Nodes older than OTP 23 will however never encode their own local pids, ports and references using the new tags.

ssh-4.6.9.4 #
Note! The ssh-4.6.9.4 application *cannot* be applied independently of other applications on an arbitrary OTP 20 installation. On a full OTP 20 installation, also the following runtime dependencies have to be satisfied: -- crypto-4.2 (first satisfied in OTP 20.2) -- public_key-1.5.2 (first satisfied in OTP 20.2)
- OTP-15763

- Application(s):
- ssh
If a client was connected to an server on an already open socket, the callback fun(PeerName,FingerPrint) in the accept_callback option passed the local name in the argument PeerName instead of the remote name.
