Normally OpenVPN is configured with --dev {tun,tap}, but it is also possible
to use --dev myvpn instead. In these situations, OpenVPN will request
--dev-type as well to be able to set up a tun or tap device properly.
The 'dev' environment variable will contain the value provided by --dev. In
those cases where the plug-in/script need to behave differently when using a tun
device versus using a tap device, there are no possibilities for it to know what
kind of device --dev myvpn would be.
This patch adds a 'dev_type' environment variable which contains a string of the
device type, either automatically discovered based on the --dev name, or set
using
the --dev-type option.
