OpenVPN 2.7.x introduced a regression where --lport specified
inside a <connection> block did not override a globally defined
local port. As a result, the socket was bound to the global
default port instead of the per-connection value.

Adjust the socket local_port selection logic to honour
local_port_defined when set for the active connection profile.

This change restores the documented and previously working
behaviour from 2.6.x, where connection-level lport takes
precedence over global defaults.

Github: #995

Thanks for the fix.

The change passes all BB and t_server tests, though this is mostly 
meaningless here - no <connection> blocks are excercised.  So I ran
this with a quick local config setup, with a global --lport and 
two <connection> profiles, one of them with a local --lport, verifying
that it indeed is honoured.

Your patch has been applied to the master and release/2.7 branch (bugfix).
