Description

OpenVPN 2.4 changed the meaning of "udp" and "tcp" to be dual stack, listening on IPv6 on all interfaces at once. "local" can still nudge the behavior but to preserve the user's choice, it's safest to move the user preference to udp4/tcp4 which reflect the previous behavior.

Also it's a good time to introduce "multihome" for those who want to run dual stack which will make OpenVPN reply from the address it received the packet on.

To me, I have a patch
