The SPDX folks have obsoleted the BSD-2-Clause-FreeBSD identifier. Catch
up to that fact and revert to their recommended match of BSD-2-Clause.

The command "ping -S dotted.quad hostname" fails on dual-stack hosts
with the confusing message "ping: invalid source address: Name does
not resolve" because IPv6 is selected in preference. If the argument
to -S is numeric (likely), select the corresponding address family,
as if -4 or -6 was specified. Add tests that either IPv4 or IPv6 can
be forced via a -S parameter.

It does not build (and serves no purpose) if neither is true (i.e.,
building WITHOUT_INET and WITHOUT_INET6). Also add an explicit error
in ping to make this case clear.

ping uses a two-pass option parser. The first pass determines whether
ipv4 or ipv6 is desired, and the second parses the rest of the options.
But the first pass wrongly detects a '4' or '6' in an option's value as
a request to use ipv6 or ipv6 respectively, for example in an invocation
like "ping -c6 1.2.3.4".
Fix this confusion by including all options in the first round of
parsing, but ignoring those unrelated to ipv4/ipv6 selection.

If the kernel was built without INET6, default to ICMP. Or, if it was
built without INET, default to ICMPv6.

Building without INET6 support was already possible. Now it's possible to
build ping with only INET6, or even with neither INET nor INET6.

When invoked as "ping6", ping will now attempt to use ICMPv6 for hostnames
that resolve both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

There is now a single ping binary, which chooses to use ICMP or ICMPv4
based on the -4 and -6 options, and the format of the address.
