Compiling with WiFi.ping() throws undefined reference to `arduino::WiFiClass::ping(arduino::String const&, unsigned char)'

Greetings,

I was informed that with Arduino Mbed products (like the Giga r1 Wifi board in particular) have undefined references to library [https://github.com/arduino/ArduinoCore-mbed/blob/4.1.1/libraries/WiFi/src/WiFi.h#L193-L195]

Is it possible to get ICMP protocol Ping added, in particular type 8 (echo) & type 0 (echo reply) so wifi.ping() function can work as expected?

Arduino IDE v2 throws error while trying to compile pingResult = WiFi.ping(hostName, 128); or pingResult = WiFi.ping(hostName);. Ref full error msg below:

Hi @endreola , WiFi.ping() is not implemented and will be removed by #862 , sorry for the lack of consistency.
