Try setting NET-SNMP-AGENT-MIB::nsDebugEnabled to be 0.
That should turn off debug output.

Alternatively, you could try turning on selected debug tokens,
rather than turning on all debugging output (which does generate
a *lot* of output).
   Look through the source for DEBUG...() statements, for the
tokens that might be of interest to you.

I don't believe there's a way to limit log files in this way, no.
Certainly not within the Net-SNMP library itself.
