Since we use peer agent as std::string, it would be nice to return std::string rather than const unsigned char*

Thank you. PR is on the right track. Could you remove the code you comment out? |

I have updated the PeerAgent to be a std::string and removed the commented code. I also added a simple test for the PeerAgent functions. I have also rebased it to the current head commit. |

I think you don't have to do const_cat<> here. Just return peerAgent. Caller will see const std::string & as per function return type.
Add --peer-agent for setting the version/user agent used in the extended handshake protocol for bittorrent.

Hmm, must have had some typo that made me add that cast, removing the cast worked fine. |

Thank you. Looks good to me. |

Just hacked this together after reading #901
I modeled this after the --peer-id-prefix settings, is this a good approach for implementing this functionality? Should I model this option after a different option?
Also any suggestions on the name for this setting/parameter I named it since its similar to the "user agent". Maybe "bt-agent", "bt-user-agent", "bt-version", "peer-version", or "bt-extended-version"? Im hesitant to call it anything with "version" since it is more of an identifier than anything else and may confuse users.
