Also try SOCK_RAW/IPPROTO_ICMP when other fail.

Under Linux Vserver SOCK_RAW is quite limited. Only IPPROTO_ICMP works,
so try to use it.

check_length_order() also doesn't work because sendto is also limited.
Fortunately under linux check_length_order is not needed as described
in comment around check_length_order.
