option needed for calling openvpn with scripts enabled

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Feature request: please add option to enable script calls (it may be a 
reasonable default setting)

Sometimes link up/down scripts are needed for vpns, particularly on 
Android due to openvpn itself being unable to directly manipulate 
Android's DNS settings.

However these scripts won't be run unless openvpn is called with the "--
script-security 2" option.

As I temporary workaround, I relocated the openvpn binary to openvpn-
bin and replaced /system/xbin/openvpn with a shell script:
#!/bin/sh
/system/xbin/openvpn-bin --script-security 2 "$@"

This works, but it would be nice to have built-in support so one could go 
straight from the OpenVPN Installer to OpenVPN Settings.

Checked out a copy and built it. Script security worked as expected. (I only 
tested level 
2). Thanks!
