When a connection is attempted using a config in a location
that would fail, offer an option to add the user to the "OpenVPN
Administrators" group. This is done using shell-execute which will
show a UAC prompt for elevation. If it fails (due to user chooses
NO or the UAC dialog fails) the connection is not started.

- Handle early errors (openvpn exits before management connection is up)
with a helpful error message that points the user to view log.
- Include only readable config files in the connection list
- Warn if no connection profiles found
TODO: handle startup errors from interactive service
Change the default log file location to OpenVPN/log in user's profile directory
to support running without admin privileges using the interactive service.
The registry keys are moved to HKCU from HKLM to allow for user-specific
settings as well as to avoid the need for running the GUI as admin at the
first instance.
