remove the --auto-proxy option from openvpn
During discussion on FOSDEM 2012 it was decided that proxy auto detection
is best done in the GUI as it's highly platform specific and shouldn't be
handled in openvpn itself for every supported platform in openvpn itself.
This removes --auto-proxy from openvpn.
