Description

The IKEv2 client on iOS 9 and OS X wants strongSwan to use leftsendcert=always when using a manual configuration. A VPN profile can be nudged the right way to not need it, but it does not seem to have any detrimental effects on other connections. With leftsendcert=always I can make connections from iOS 9.1, OS X 10.11.1, Android 4.x with the strongSwan App, Windows 10, and Linux Mint 17.2 via NetworkManager. Without leftsendcert=always, manual connections from iOS and OS X fail.

Ran it by mgsmith and he didn't see any problem with setting it.

I've got a patch I'll push momentarily.
