From: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@openvpn.net>

Due to the current logic it is not possible for a server
to create an IPv6-only tunnel, because OpenVPN mandates
the existance of an IPv4 configuration (even if fake).

This change relaxes this constraint and allows servers to
bring up tunnels without any IPv4 setting at all.

For the user this means that a server can be configured
with just the "--server-ipv6" directive and no "--server"
at all.

Trac: #208
