This commit adds IPv6 capabilities to check_icmp. It is now possible to specify the address family using the arguments -4 (default) or -6.
To make the change possible we had to move the argument parsing previous to creating the socket to be able to create it with the correct address family. This commit also fixes some gcc 4.9.2 compiler warnings. It has been tested with several current linux distributions (debian, ubuntu, rh, sles).
