That API is used for parsing configuration file lines that match the
"usmUser" token in the persistent-storage snmpd.conf files.  Generally
it's not meant to be a public function for injecting users, but you
could.

The 'token' is simply expected to be 'usmUser', and 'line' is the rest
of the usmUser configuration line without the leading 'usmUser' token.

However, if you really want to create usm users it would be better to
create a user in a 'struct usmUser' and then use usm_add_user() to add
it to the user database.
