openvpnserv: Add support for multi-instances
While openvpn.exe can run multiple concurrent processes, openvpnserv.exe
is usually only one single globally unique running process.
This patch extends openvpnserv.exe to support multiple service instances
in parallel allowing side-by-side OpenVPN installations.
Alternate instances must be installed as `SERVICE_WIN32_OWN_PROCESS`
(Type 0x10) and must use the newly introduced service command line
parameter:
-instance <name> <id>
<name> can be `automatic` or `interactive`.
- The service settings will be loaded from `HKLM\Software\OpenVPN<id>`
registry key.
- The automatic service will use `openvpn<id>_exit_1` exit event.
- The interactive service will accept requests on
`\\.\pipe\openvpn<id>\service` named pipe, and run IPC with
openvpn.exe on `\\.\pipe\openvpn<id>\service_<pid>`.
This patch preserves backward compatibility, by defaulting to
`SERVICE_WIN32_SHARE_PROCESS` and `<empty string>` as service ID.
