Command line options for automated passwords are documented under 'help 
options'.

Basic notes:
- https://github.com/OpenVPN/easy-rsa/issues/838

EasyRSA uses --passin/--passout to pass values to OpenSSL -passin/-passout.
Those values are dictated by OpenSSL expected syntax.

See:
- https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.1.1/man1/openssl.html
  (The very last section on that page)

Everybody wants automated passwords because moar security must be better..
