Compile tested: mvebu, Turris Omnia, TOS 7.0 ~ OpenWrt 22.03
Run tested: mvebu, Turris Omnia, TOS 7.0 ~ OpenWrt 22.03, custom scripts reacting to those events work
Description:
OpenVPN supports more hooks than just 'up' and 'down'. Especially reacting to 'route-up' and 'route-pre-down' events could be important. When routing table changes, it can make sense to adapt firewall, run some tests or change even more routes. This change passes those events to hotplug, so it is easy to react to them without changing configuration files provided by VPN provider.
