I think this should exclude tmp_next_run == 0.

If we have two peers, with the first getting a non-0 value and the 2nd
getting 0, we'll end up with next_run = 0 on return.

If we have three peers and ovpn_peer_keepalive_work_single returns
12,0,42, we'll end up with 42 (after resetting to 0 on the 2nd peer),
and we could miss sending the needed keepalive for peer 1.
