OpenVPN 2.5 clients do not correctly do a fallback to the server server.
This commit fixes that logic and also fixes --data-ciphers-fallback to
be used in situations other than no OCC cipher.
To reproduce the error use a client with only --data-ciphers set against
a server without NCP.
OPTIONS ERROR: failed to negotiate cipher with server.
Add the server's cipher ('AES-256-CBC') to --data-ciphers
(currently 'AES-256-CBC') if you want to connect to this server.
