Fix ping-only hosts polled twice per cycle with inconsistent parameters

_collect_snapshot called pulse.ping(count=1) independently from
_process_ping_hosts which called pulse.ping(count=3). This doubled
network load and could show a host as 'up' in the dashboard while
simultaneously firing an 'unreachable' alert, or vice versa.

Now ping_states is computed once in run() using the alert-quality
parameters (count=3) and shared by both snapshot and alert processing.
