[SNMP4J] Tree/TableUtils: make lexicographic order check configurable

[Christof Meerwald]

Hi,

at the moment, TreeUtils (and TableUtils) checks that it receives OIDs 
in lexicographic order and aborts with an error if the check fails. This 
is, of course, fine according to the SNMP specs, but unfortunately, 
there are some SNMP devices out there that don't return all data in 
strict lexicographic order (i.e. returning tables by row instead of by 
column).

Therefore it would be beneficial to be able to configure the 
TreeUtils/TableUtils class to not check for strict lexicographic order 
in some cases. Would that be something that you could consider adding to 
snmp4j? (essentially, just adding a flag to be able to disable the check)


Thanks,
Christof
