- This is an opaque pointer so the change should not affect
  existing plugins. But it makes the code consistent and clears up
  the documentation as the handle pointer is treated as of type
  "openvpn_plugin_handle_t" in the rest of the code.

Will make some noise during application (git pw patch apply 87), such as:
"Falling back to patching base and 3-way merge..."

But it won't generate any conflict.

Oh, we had the patch on the list already.  Thanks for finding it & ACK.

Your patch has been applied to the master and release/2.4 branch (bugfix).

The "git complains" part was due to patch context still talking about 
ENABLE_CRYPTO, which doesn't exist anymore in master - easily workarounded.

commit a2f43c2d6f086e7aa8b6160793f0c462ee9d6aa7 (master)
commit 359e66bcb17c856a74cada9136ae1b8f411a2493 (release/2.4)
