From: Ralf Lici <ralf@mandelbit.com>

If dco_get_peer_stats() is called with an uninitialized c->c1.tuntap it
results in a segfault. This issue happens when a client who has not
connected to any server:
  - has --management and exits,
  - has --management and a management interface client issues either
    `bytecount` or `status` or
  - if SIGUSR2 is sent to it.

Add a check to ensure the tun interface was set up before attempting to
retrieve peer statistics.
