Adding "managed configuration" for Android Enterprise

Description
On iOS its already supported to passthrough settings for openVPN Connect app.
For example tunnel and authentication settings, certificates etc.
For Android theres a similar way to deploy apps via an EMM/MDM.
When using a managed google play account you are able to approve apps and upload them with your managed configuration.
Here you can take a look how it works, its a quite simple configuration mapping via xml structures.

We would be quite grateful if you are able to add this to your Android app, since atm there are only 5 commercial VPN apps (bundled with their respective VPN Server / Service) providing managed configurations available for android.
We are able to troubleshoot and beta test this too, as we do have a EMM software and an Android 10 device setup as enterprise managed device.

I am closing this ticket as the open source Android app (OpenVPN for Android) supports EMM and tracking Connect bugs here is not particulary useful.
