Add support for the "ping" command so that apps can figure out a server's availability and latency. Alternatively, add support for ICMP packets so that a developer could make and send their own ping packets.

We will not provide specific packet encoding for network communications beyond HTTP. If users would like to ping servers with ICMP packets, they are welcome to read the ICMP specification and implement them themselves with our codec/buffer system in javascript.
