OpenVPN recommends disabling compression, as it may weaken the security
of the connection. For users who need compression, we build with LZ4
support by default. LZO in OpenVPN pulls in liblzo at approx. 32 kB.
OpenWrt users will no longer be able to connect to OpenVPN peers that
require LZO compression, unless they build the OpenVPN package themselves.

New features:
* Per client tls-crypt keys
* ChaCha20-Poly1305 can be used to encrypt the data channel
* Routes are added/removed via Netlink instead of ifconfig/route
(unless iproute2 support is enabled).
* VLAN support when using a TAP device
Significant changes:
* Server support can no longer be disabled.
* Crypto support can no longer be disabled, remove nossl variant.
* Blowfish (BF-CBC) is no longer implicitly the default cipher.
OpenVPN peers prior to 2.4, or peers with data cipher negotiation
disabled, will not be able to connect to a 2.5 peer unless
option data_fallback_ciphers is set on the 2.5 peer and it contains a
cipher supported by the client.
