Net::Ping and sudo

A recent pull into blead of Net::Ping from CPAN (which is under dist/, but
Reini seems to be pushing new versions to CPAN) has added code to
t/500_ping_icmp.t that says: "if not running as root, try re-executing the
script under sudo, but quietly skip if sudo doesn't succeed".

This has two issues: firstly, I now get an angry local email when running
'make test':

    To: root@iabyn.com
    Subject: *** SECURITY information for robin ***
    Message-Id: <20161102122201.16A7B240D0E@iabyn.com>

    robin : Nov  2 12:22:01 : davem : user NOT in sudoers ; TTY=pts/1 ; PWD=/home/da
    vem/perl5/git/bleed/dist/Net-Ping ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/home/davem/perl5/git/bl
    eed/perl -I../../lib t/500_ping_icmp.t

which is annoying.

Secondly, I think people would find it unexpected for a perl test script
to be run as root when 'make test' has been invoked as a normal user.  To
a certain extent you could say that people using an account set up so that
it can sudo to root and run any command without needing a password,
deserve anything they get anyway.

In either case, I think we should remove the sudo from this test script.
