Enable anonymous ping

[arj03]

After upgrading to ssb-room-client I noticed that ping for direct connections was not working anymore in the browser. This fixes that.

Can you help me figure out which module is calling tunnel.ping? I've been hunting for that.

[arj03]

In browser core it is done here. This is the we can't do the slow ping part. And it seems like dominic needed it for the same purpose: https://github.com/ssbc/ssb-tunnel/blob/64eba7e5782fa22a0b61fb77215f51a244ebdb02/examples/browser/index.js

Thank you :-)

@arj03 I know this is a mega old issue, but I was thinking whether we still need ping in ppppp hubs (similar to ssb rooms) and you said that the browser closes connections after 30 seconds of inactivity: https://github.com/arj03/ssb-browser-core/blob/193a6983892e459f2ebccc335694c20df603480e/net.js#L106

But could it be that this "30" seconds actually came from this config? https://github.com/arj03/ssb-browser-core/blob/193a6983892e459f2ebccc335694c20df603480e/net.js#L32

Or do you think the browser itself has this restriction on websockets?

[arj03]

@staltz I think it was websockets closing the connection, but it could be that option.
