Summary: check_fping: added quick host-alive mode

Initial Comment:
Hi there

I'm using check_fping to test around 1000 WAN Routers around the globe. Due to high delay and a normal packet loss I'm forced to use high timeouts and more Pings per test to prevent flapping. 

To reduce the check-duration, i added a host-alive flag which stops testing after the first successful reply.

Kind regards,

Michael
