icmp echo disable (or dont answer pings)

[sjohnson at sakuraindustries.com (Steven Johnson)]

Hi,

I've posted this before, but it seems to have been missed, because it
was in a message with other info.

We need to be able to prevent all ping's being echoed in my application,
it's an end user security requirement.

I've added a feature to the network stack to allow this to be toggled by
the application (using a sysctl).  Patch is attached for comments.

This patch is against 4.6.99.3
