OpenVPN is an open source VPN daemon

Previous OpenVPN versions shut down the TLS control channel immediately when encountering an error. This also meant that we would not send out TLS alerts to notify a client about potential problems like mismatching TLS versions or having no common cipher. This commit adds a new key_state S_ERROR_PRE which still allows to send out the remaining TLS packets of the control session which are typically the alert message and then going to S_ERROR. We do not wait for retries. So this is more a one-shot notify but that is acceptable in this situation. Sending out alerts is a slight compromise in security as alerts give out a bit of information that otherwise is not given out. But since all other consumers TLS implementations are already doing this and TLS implementations (nowadays) are very careful not to leak (sensitive) information by alerts and since the user experience is much better with alerts, this compromise is worth it.
