Use ICMP echo for traceroute if no other responsive probe is known. This

can happen with -PN against a filtered host or with -PN -sP against any
host.

This works as expected when the remote host actually responds to the
ping probes, but takes a long time when the remote host ignores it. Take
this for example:

nmap -PN -sP --traceroute www.microsoft.com -n

! maximum TTL reached (50)
Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 2201.79 seconds

The traceroute can't stop, as it normally does, when it gets a response
from the target because no such response is forthcoming. So it keeps
going until it hits its own limit. The same trace against www.google.com
takes only about 30 seconds.
