Add: PoC for alive test.

It only support icmpv4

For testing, compile with nasl-builtin-raw-ip feature and run
`sudo target/debug/scannerctl alivetest --icmp -t 192.168.0.1,192.168.0.2,192.168.0.3 --timeout 5000 --verbose`

+# Alive Test 
+
+This is the rust library implementation of Boreas from https://github.com/greenbone/gvm-libs/ and https://github.com/greenbone/boreas/
+
+Alive Test is a library to scan for alive hosts as well as a command line tool integrated in scannerctl, which replaces the former Boreas library and command line tool written in C.
+
+It supports IPv4 and IPv6 address ranges and allows to exclude certain addresses from a range. The alive ping tests support ICMP, TCP-ACK, TCP-SYN and ARP and any combination. For TCP ping an individual port list can be applied.

+# Notus Scanner
+
+This is the rust library implementation of the Notus Scanner originating from https://github.com/greenbone/notus-scanner
+
+Notus Scanner detects vulnerable products in a system environment. The scanning 
+method is to evaluate internal system information. It does this very fast and
+even detects currently inactive products because it does not need to interact
+with each of the products.
+
+To report about vulnerabilities, Notus Scanner receives collected system
+information on the one hand and accesses the vulnerability information from the
+notus feed on the other. Both input elements are in table form: the system
+information is specific to each environment and the vulnerability information is
+specific to each system type.
+
+Notus Scanner integrates into the Greenbone Vulnerability Management framework
+which allows to let it scan entire networks within a single task. Any
+vulnerability test in the format of `.notus` files inside the Greenbone Feed
+will be considered and automatically matched with the scanned environments.
+
+A system environment can be the operating system of a host. But it could also be
+containers like Docker or virtual machines. Neither of these need to be actively
+running for scanning.
+
+The Notus Scanner is implemented as a Rust library and published under an Open Source
+license. Greenbone Networks maintains and extends it since it is embedded in the
+Greenbone Professional Edition as well as in the Greenbone Cloud Services.
+
+Greenbone also keeps the vulnerability information up-to-date via the feed on a
+daily basis. The `.notus` format specification is open and part of the
+documentation. To get the required notus files use the greenbone feed sync
+https://github.com/greenbone/greenbone-feed-sync
