Description

The kill command for client instances connected to the OpenVPN Server changed to require the protocol as a prefix without the address family:

Show

Additionally the option does not support IPv6 clients:

Show

This option hasn't worked for some time due to a regression in https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/15856

Rather than continuing to maintain this option which doesn't work for IPv6, remove it in favor of the client-kill option which still works and does support IPV6 clients.
