Add black magic to minimize ping losses
This particular arping interval/count, along with forcing it to run in the foreground, seems to minimize the packet loss when the primary coordinator transitions. Through extensive testing, this value results in the, consistently, least amount of loss: 1-2 pings, at an 0.025s ping interval, return "TTL exceeded", with no other loss, and only when the node the test VM is on is the one switching to secondary state. No other combination of values here, nor tweaks to other parts of the code, seem able to reduce this further, therefore this is likely the best configuration possible.
