icmp: Store ping socket information in flow table
Currently icmp_id_map[][] stores information about ping sockets in a bespoke structure. Move the same information into new types of flow in the flow table. To match that change, replace the existing ICMP timer with a flow-based timer for expiring ping sockets. This has the advantage that we only need to scan the active flows, not all possible ids. We convert icmp_id_map[][] to point to the flow table entries, rather than containing its own information. We do still use that array for locating the right ping flows, rather than using a "flow native" form of lookup for the time being.
