Patches 1 to 6 are fixes for pre-existing issues reported by Sashiko 
some time ago, that we confirmed after code analysis.

They are "theoretical" because OpenVPN in userspace is not hitting these 
bugs and we have not witnessed these issues in production, but other 
software may.

Patch 7 is fixing a crash in the selftests binary that we actually hit.
