Description
Add a test for oid lookup using mibs provided by network device vendors such as Juniper and Cisco.
The test would download mibs from a vendor, then configure telegraf's mib parsing/lookup code to use them and verifies that lookups work for oids that have been reported to fail.
for context, see https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/pull/10428#issuecomment-1012435768
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with Telegraf's MIB parsing and OID lookup code, then inspect the integration-test setup and the context in pull request 10428. Use vendor-provided Juniper and Cisco MIBs, configure the lookup code to load them, and verify that the previously failing OID lookups succeed.
