client-to-client does packet forwarding inside openvpn, no nftables
involved (and nftables has no chance to filter).

without client-to-client, packets go to the linux tun interface, and
are *returned* (incoming = tun, outgoing = tun) and openvpn forwards
it then to the other client.  In that case, nftables can affect them.
