This is part of a series of changes to make the "non-interactive
OpenVPN service" run itself + openvpn.exec without SYSTEM privileges,
using the iservice. This service needs more privileges than "joe random
user", especially "run config files from non-default directories", and
we can't add the service user to the "OpenVPN Administrators" group
-> so add privileges for "the service user", as if part of that group
(config files, and command line options).
Stared hard at the code, and tested building. Not actually tested
the resulting binaries.
Your patch has been applied to the master branch.
