Allow users to choose which ping implementation, by using:

pkgx +gnu.org/inetutils ping

or:

pkgx +github.com/iputils/iputils ping

ping is the standard and widely recognized command name on Linux. Using linux-ping is unusual and may cause compatibility issues with existing scripts that expect the standard ping command.

Furthermore, ping from github.com/iputils/iputils is the default implementation used by most major Linux distributions.
