Adds a Ping method to the Producer, which allows for testing a Producer's nsqd connection w/o publishing any messages to a topic.
I've found it to be useful for failing fast when configuring Producers that might not Publish immediately (since otherwise, the connections are only made lazily on Publish).
Not thrilled with the method name "Ping", so am totally open to other suggestions.
