Note that while the range 0-65534 works for "normal" groups, there are
some use cases outside of that range besides the usual container
mapping, e.g. Active Directory users, so we can't change our default
value to it.

In the short term I will revert the setcap removal from iputils, but I'd
love to see the ping_group_range solution get solved at some point :/

For the record, iputils code change allowing for the drop of setcap aren't new, 
and were present in the package since around 2015:
