The packages with the release *name* (i.e. "xenial0") in the version
string are from the OpenVPN-project repositories, while the packages with
the release *number* ("20.04.4") in the version string are from Ubuntu's
repositories.
Based on the discussion last summer, I believe you decided you wanted to
use the packages from Ubuntu... so on the server with "Candidate:
2.4.7-1ubuntu2.20.04.4" you should be all set -- just go ahead and
install the default openvpn packge.
(You can see from the "apt policy" output that all available versions
are in ubuntu.com/ubuntu repositories.)
