Parallel Internet measurement utility

https://www.caida.org/tools/measurement/scamper/

Scamper is a program that is able to conduct Internet measurement
tasks to large numbers of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, in parallel, to
fill a specified packets-per-second rate. Currently, it supports the
well-known ping and traceroute techniques, as well as MDA traceroute,
alias resolution, some parts of tbit, sting, and neighbour discovery.

Scamper can do ICMP-based Path MTU discovery. scamper starts with the
outgoing interface's MTU and discovers the location of Path MTU
bottlenecks. scamper performs a PMTUD search when an ICMP
fragmentation required message is not returned to establish the PMTU
to the next point in the network, followed by a TTL limited search to
infer where the failure appears to occur.

- update to version 20230614a
 * configure:
  * better tests for zlib, libbz2, and liblzma that check for both
    libraries and headers.
  * change --with-sc_uptime, --with-sc_hoiho, and --with-tests to be
    --enable-sc_uptime, --enable-sc_hoiho, and --enable-tests
  * disable maintainer mode, pass foreign to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
 * scamper:
  * remove reading regular files from poll/select/epoll/kqueue path,
    which fixes reading regular input files (-f option to scamper) using
    epoll or kqueue
  * fix reading stdin as input (-f option to scamper) when using
    epoll (catch EPOLLHUP)
  * add DNS server to host signature, add host path for scamper_task_find
  * rework scamper_osinfo to work with malformed release names (uname -r)
  * dealias: do not crash on malformed prefixscan and bump commands
  * dealias: fix memory leak of probedefs on malformed commands
  * sting: fix memory leak of recorded packets
  * remove tsps input method (-O tsps option to scamper)
  * update manual page
 * libscamperctrl:
  * link against list.o and splaytree.o so that the library is self-contained
  * fix memory leak when task is not accepted
  * API improvements
 * libscamperfile:
  * fix memory leak when reading SOA/MX from warts file
  * fix memory leak when reading PMTUD traceroute structures from warts file
  * sting: fix memory leak of recorded packets
 * sc_analysis_dump, sc_warts2pcap, sc_wartscat, sc_wartsfilter:
  * link against list.o/utils.o so that these utilities are not reliant on
    those symbols being exported from libscamperfile
 * sc_prefixprober:
  * allow compression type to be specified using -O
  * free scamper_addr_t as each are removed from the list to probe
 * sc_remoted:
  * catch EPOLLHUP with epoll
 * sc_warts2text:
  * fix memory leaks
 * sc_wartsdump:
  * fix memory leaks
  * link against utils.o so that sc_wartsdump is not reliant on those
    symbols being exported from libscamperfile
