No, it is not needed. Your directory must be owned by root (or the git
command has been started as root). By the way building in /opt/oisf may
not be the better choice try from a user home subdirectory.

Same reason as first point.

It was the way to go.

Basically, coccinelle is only needed if you want to check the code. It
is mainly attended for developers.

Do you have a libhtp installed from package ? Try to run:
	dpkg -l '*libhtp*'
to check this.
If this is the case, you better removed it. HTP version in suricata's
git should be more recent.
