+Returns `PONG` if no argument is provided, otherwise return a copy of the
+argument as a bulk. This command is often used to test if a connection is still
+alive, or to measure latency.
+
+If the client is subscribed to a channel or a pattern, it will instead return a
+multi-bulk with a "pong" in the first position and an empty bulk in the second
+position, unless an argument is provided in which case it returns a copy of the
+argument.
