Description

As discussed (suggested) on the openvpn-devel list in this thread

​ http://www.mail-archive.com/openvpn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg22098.html

nobody seems to see a good reason to keep the code path no --persist-key .

So, feature wish: make it always-on, remove the "off" code path, document.

Persist-key: enable persist-key option by default


Change the default behavior of the OpenVPN configuration
by enabling the persist-key option by default.


This means that all the keys will be kept in memory
across restart.
