Added new "extra-certs" and "verify-hash" options (see man page for
details). Increase the timeout after SIGUSR1 restart when restart is not due to server_poll_timeout. Version 2.1.3v git-svn-id: http://svn.openvpn.net/projects/openvpn/branches/BETA21/openvpn@7215 e7ae566f-a301-0410-adde-c780ea21d3b5
