Fix --askpass not allowing for password input via stdin
This resolves --askpass treating stdin as a file during the file access check. In turn, this leads to openvpn failing to start if this option is set to stdin. By default, --askpass reads the certificate's password from stdin rather than a file. Without passing the CHKACC_ACPTSTDIN flag to check_file_access(), stdin is marked as being a nonexistent file.
