[atlas] Feature request for IP record route feature in RIPE Atlas

Hello, dear Atlas Team!

As host of RIPE Anchor #6111 I have some feedback about your awesome service!

Thanks for your Great Job in measuring Internet!

I would like to ask very important feature for measuring reverse trace
route. I'm speaking about IP record route option which could track up
to 9 hops of reverse path.

I want to know path to my hosts from networks who haven't RIPE Atlas.
Actually I could not implement this feature due to 9 hop restriction
in IP header.

But RIPE Atlas offer really huge coverage over the World and we could
reach really any host with <7 hops. But we haven't this feature in
RIPE Atlas.

Finally with this feature we could build full adjacently map over all the World.

I have checked implementation details here
https://labs.ripe.net/Members/philip_homburg/ripe-atlas-measurements-source-code

Looks like we need to build separate libevent based toolkit for this
task or add this feature to ping tool. But unfortunately I could not
find any docs about deploy of RIPE source code for development. Could
you share some information?
