fping 5.2 and 5.3 add some new useful command line options
which this commit add to check_fping.
These are:
* --fwmark - sets a firewall mark in the packages to make them
identifiable (fping 5.2)
* --icmp-timestamp - fping uses ICMP timestamp instead of ICMP
Echo (fping 5.2)
* --check-source - fping discards replies which originate not from
the target address (fping 5.2)
The fping release notes describe theses options ( https://github.com/schweikert/fping/releases )
in a little bit more detail.
Currently the help display for those options is only shown
when fping was available in the appropriate version during
compilation.
If fping is used with a target that has dual stack v4/v6, then due to
the logic during command construction, ipv4 will never be checked as v6
is preferred by fping.
This explicitly flags -4/-6 when it is requested by the user.
Stole the logic in check_ping that allows it to autodetect whether an
address is ipv6 or not. Now the user does not have to specify -6 when
using check_fping with ipv6 addresses.
This is an initial take at renaming the project to Monitoring Plugins.
It's not expected to be fully complete, and it is expected to break
things (The perl module for instance). More testing will be required
before this goes mainline.
Let check_fping use IPv6 only if
- the operating system supports IPv6,
- the user didn't specify --without-ipv6, and
- the "configure" script found the fping6(8) binary.
Add command line options -4 and -6 (--use-ipv4 and
--use-ipv6) to check_fping. IPv4 is used by default,
maintaining backwards compatibility with older
check_fping versions. IPv6 support requires the
fping6 program.
The implementation is really just an imitation of
check_ping IPv6 support: Plugin command line option
-4/-6 designates whether to run fping/fping6.
Please note that especially the changes to
configure.in might be all wrong - I don't know
what's the proper autoconf way, patching
configure.in just seemed to work for me.
Fixes many instances of

Bug #2832884 reported problem with translations outputting pot file
headers. This is caused by "" matching the header of the translation
files.
This patch moves gettext macros inside utils macros and update some
french translations.
Added support for passing timeout and interval length to check_fping.
To protect compatibility, both options use fping's defaults if they
are not specified on the command line.
command line option was used, as this leads to a segfault on some
systems. The unknown option will be printed by getopt(3) anyway. So,
simply call print_usage() and exit UNKNOWN via the new usage5() instead.
