From: Lev Stipakov <l...@openvpn.net>

Servers 2.4.0 - 2.4.4 support peer-id and AEAD ciphers,
but only send DATA_V1 packets. With DCO enabled on the
client, connection is established but not working.

This is because DCO driver(s) are unable to handle
DATA_V1 packets and forwards them to userspace, where
they silently disappear since crypto context is in
DCO and not in userspace.

Starting from 2.4.5 server sends DATA_V2 so problem
doesn't happen.

We cannot switch to non-DCO on the fly, so we log this
and advice user to upgrade the server to 2.4.5 or newer.

This fixes https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn/issues/422
