When openvpn exits due to error, the GUI pops up a modal dialog and
waits on user to click OK before cleaning up resources and closing
the status window. During this phase if the user clicks "connect"
from the tray menu, a new thread is started overwriiting several
handles in the connection struct.
Fix: Refuse to start a connection when previous status thread is
still active. Instead, bring the exisiting status window to fore-ground.
Also make the modal dialog a child of the status window for better
visibility.

Sometimes gracefully stopping openvpn fails leaving the
process running in background. This causes restarting of
connections to fail until those processes are manually killed.
- Read process ID from interactive service to get process
handle when openvpn is started by the service.
- Add a last resort method to forcefully terminate openvpn
process that fails to exit aftier sending stop signal. Terminate
is triggered after a 3 second timeout following Stop.

Option ediitng dialogs are in two tabs: General and Advanced.
Proxy related options are left in the proxy tab. Options
config_dir, config_ext, log_dir, script timeouts and
service-only flag are in the Advanced tab. All other more commonly
used flags and options are in the General tab.
- As options are editable, save values in registry only when they differ
from the default values. This leaves the registry clean and makes changing
options and their defaults during updates easier.
- Entries for config_dir and log_dir must be absolute paths.
Environemental variables such as %PROFILEDIR% may be used
to construct these.
- Empty config_dir, config_ext and log_dir entries are silently
ignored (i.e., the current values are left unchanged).
- Store all numeric and boolean parameters in registry as DWORD instead of
strings.
- On startup, the default parameters are loaded, then the registry is read
and finally command-line parameters parsedi.
- Out of range script timeout values in registry truncated with a
warning instead of fatal error. This allows the user to access the
settings dialog and make corrections.
- Save proxy and language settings under the same
HKCU\Software\OpenVPN-GUI key as other options instead of under Nilings.
- Save the current version of the GUI in regsitry so that updates
can be detected and any needed registry cleanup done.
- If no version info is present in the registry any values in OpenVPN-GUI
key in HKCU are deleted for a clean start as this is the first version
to save registry values in HKCU. Language and proxy data if present
under Nilings is migrated.
Note: new controls in the General tab and newly added Advanced tab dialog
are copied to all language files from the English version. These need to
be translated.

- Use ShellExecute to open config and log files so that
file associations can be used. If that fails fall-back to
the default editor (notepad.exe).
- Remove the keys editor and log_viewer from registry.
The user can change the editor/viewer through fie association.

- Replace allow_password by a runtime check that enables password
change menu only when the user has write-access to the key file.
- Read exe_path and priority from HKLM and do not duplicate in HKCU.
- Always allow the user to view the config: edit will succeed if user
has write access.
- Always include the proxy settings tab which is the default.
- Remove the unused power event handling and disconnect_on_suspend key.
- Remove password_attempts -- user can stop the password dilaog
by clicking cancel.
- Remove allow_service: implicitly enabled if service_only is used.
- Deprecate removed options in cmd-line parser
- Update README.rst
- Close config file before exit in GetKeyFileName
- Close thread and dialog handles in passphrase.c

- Username and, optionally, password as well as the private
key passphrase are saved in config-specific registry keys
- All saved data are kept encrypted using DPAPI
- The passphrase dialog is skipped if a valid saved private
key password is available. However, the user-auth dialog
is always presented, prefilled with the saved username
and password.
Note: A text string "Save password" is added to three dialogs
in all language resource files. Additional text with ids
IDS_MENU_CLEARPASS and IDS_NFO_DELETE_PASS are added to the
STRINGTABLE only in the English language resource file.
All these need translations.

PostThreadMessage used to trigger exit event gets lost while
in modal dialog loops such as auth dialog. Replace it by PostMessage
and handle it in the status window callback.
Fixes openvpn processes left behind if exit is pressed while
user-auth dialog is active.
Changes after feedback:
- Use PostMessage correctly in SuspendOpenVPN() (error pointed
out by leobasilio@gmail.com).
