You shouldn't use the same name as the existing barebox commands,
otherwise there might be name clashes. Add some _ratp_ to it.

I am not sure if I like the magic construction of the id field. Being
able to grep for BB_RATP_TYPE_PING and finding the user has advantages.
How about manually setting the field in the body of the command instead
of constructing it?
