I think breaking out a separate asn1.lua library is a fine idea. For it
to work, though, I don't want any code duplication with snmp.lua. The
ASN.1 functions have to be moved out of snmp.lua and snmp.lua will
require("asn1") for anything it needs.

You can commit the asn1 library whenever you like, and then modify
snmp.lua to use it. If you think it will take several commits, you can
make a branch to do the work in and merge it after.
