Log:
  ping: Verify whether a datagram timestamp was actually received.
  
  ping(8) uses SO_TIMESTAMP, which attaches a timestamp to each IP datagram at
  the time it's received by the kernel.  Except that occasionally it doesn't.
  Add a check to see whether such a timestamp was actually set before trying
  to read it.  This fixes segfaults that can happen when the kernel doesn't
  attach a timestamp.
  
  The bug has always existed, but prior to r351461 it manifested as an
  implausible round-trip-time, not a segfault.
