diag_ping.php - Following link to pre-fill page results in an incorrect error

Description
If you follow a link, such as one from Diag > DNS Lookup, to diag_ping.php similar to this:
diag_ping.php?host=google.com&interface=wan&count=3
The page loads displaying an error that the host couldn't be resolved or didn't respond, which isn't true the ping just hasn't been done yet (since it shouldn't take action until run via POST)

This shouldn't be taking the action on following the link, it should only be pre-filling the form. Automatically taking an action like that on GET isn't desirable.

I'll take this, looks like there is a similar problem with traceroute, I've got a fix.

Looks good here, it's behaving as expected now. No errors on load and it does not take action until the form is submitted.
