When running the connectivity tests in AKS, we sometimes get interrupted commands that don't have any output [1]. Therefore, successful command terminations with an empty output are treated as inconclusive that result in a retry [2].
Unfortunately, the ping command might get stuck by only outputting its header line to the output.
PING 10.0.0.1 (10.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
This commit adds an additional check for the ping commands. If we see an output only containing the header, we treat it as inconclusive result.
