ethernet: default basic connectivity ping to 8.8.8.8 - #614

Use 8.8.8.8 instead of the discovered gateway when the basic Ethernet test has no ping-target override. Preserve PING_TARGET for an empty CLI value so empty LAVA parameters retain the runner default or environment selection. Document explicit local-peer overrides and external ICMP requirements. Keep the shared helper and other Ethernet suites unchanged. Signed-off-by: Srikanth Muppandam <smuppand@qti.qualcomm.com>

Summary
Context
The supplied stdout from LAVA job 478698 shows eth0 with IPv4 10.142.127.135 and passing link/IP checks. With an empty ping target, the test selected 10.142.126.1 and failed after three unanswered ping attempts. The existing selector prefers the interface gateway. This change makes the default destination explicit and predictable.
