Current changes to 5.8.1.pre2 total:

*5.8.1*
    snmplib:
      - Add IPv6 support to DTLSUDP transport
      - use new netsnmp_sockaddr_storage in netsnmp_addr_pair
      - add base_transport ptr for tunneled transports
      - Add support for OpenSSL 1.1.1
      - Dtls: overhaul of debug
      - Remove inline versions of container funcs

    snmpd:
      - Use ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS when available Newer Linux kernels
        support ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS. Use it when available instead of the
        older and deprecated ETHTOOL_GSET. This patch avoids that the Linux
        kernel reports the following kernel warning: warning: 'snmpd' uses
        legacy ethtool link settings API, link modes are only partially
        reported See also https://sourceforge.net/p/net-snmp/patches/1387/.
        [bvanassche: reworked this patch significantly]

    snmptrap:
      - BUG: 2899: Patch from Drew Roedersheimer to set library
        engineboots/time values before sending

    snmptrapd:
      - Add support for the latest libmysqlclient version

    libsnmp:
      - Scan MIB directories in alphabetical order This guarantees that
        e.g. mibs/RFC1213-MIB.txt is read before mibs/SNMPv2-MIB.txt. The
        order in which these MIBs is read matters because both define
        sysLocation but with different attributes.

    unspecified:
      - [BUG 2930]: Fix a Solaris hrSWInst crash Avoid that snmpd crashes
        on Solaris when querying software packages with an empty CATEGORY
        field. See also https://sourceforge.net/p/net-snmp/bugs/2930/. See
        also https://sourceforge.net/p/net-snmp/patches/1390/.

    Win32:
      - BUG: 2779541 Fixed handle leak in pass_persist.
