ovpn: notify userspace when a peer is deleted

Browse source

Whenever a peer is deleted, send a notification to userspace so that it
can react accordingly.

This is most important when a peer is deleted due to ping timeout,
because it all happens in kernelspace and thus userspace has no direct
way to learn about it.
