- Download link was outdated.
- Link to docs on configuration pointed to the main page of OpenVPN Inc.
which is hardly helpful -- point to the configuration section of the
HOW TO instead.

- Remove description about run-as-admin that is out-dated.
Simply state that the GUI is supposed to be run as a limited user.
- Document persistent connections support in the GUI.

- Remove service-only mode (start/stop service) which has not been in
use since we moved to running the GUI as limited user.
Also its not very useful as it does not allow any control of
service-started daemons
- Keep CheckServiceStatus and always check the status of
automatic service.
The status of the service will be used to toggle supporting
control of persistent connections started by the service.

manually copy a config file to the config folder and start
it using "openvpn-gui --command rescan" followed by
"openvpn-gui --command connect foo"
v2: The calls to rebuild config file list and recreate
