After this, we'll be able to ping a host and not spam the terminal, and
no flooding will have to be involved. I've been doing this under Linux
as ping -fi1 host.

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.

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.
