Matthias Andree 6853ab171e security/openvpn*: update to 2.6.0, keep openvpn25
- copy openvpn to openvpn25, mark as deprecated and to expire March 31

- update openvpn to openvpn 2.6.0, highlights from Frank Lichtenheld's
  release announcement e-mail, slightly edited:

 * Data Channel Offload (DCO) kernel acceleration support for Windows,
   Linux, and FreeBSD [14].
 * OpenSSL 3 support
 * Improved handling of tunnel MTU, including support for pushable MTU.
 * Outdated cryptographic algorithms disabled by default, but there are
   options to override if necessary.
 * Reworked TLS handshake, making OpenVPN immune to replay-packet state
   exhaustion attacks.
 * Added --peer-fingerprint mode for a more simplistic certificate setup
   and verification.
 * Improved protocol negotiation, leading to faster connection setup.
