Change the default value of the "checker" option command to make the
checker command be run-time dependent on the "host" client attribute
instead of reading it only once on startup:

* clients.conf (checker): Changed default commented-out value to
                          "fping -q -- %%(host)s".
* mandos (main): Changed default value for the "checker" config option
                 to "fping -q -- %%(host)s".
* mandos-clients.conf.xml (OPTIONS): Document changed default value.
  (EXAMPLE): Changed value of "checker".

* plugins.d/password-prompt.c: Whitespace changes only.
