build: crop excessive net-snmp library list

This fixes the longstanding GPL vs. OpenSSL licensing issue in our SNMP
code (and cuts down on its other dependencies a wee bit.)

In a way, net-snmp is really buggy here in what it says that we should
link against, but I don't know their application scenarios well enough
to say it should be changed at their end.
