    if_ovpn.c: fix use of uninitialized variable
    
    In case we use OVPN_CIPHER_ALG_NONE, the memcpy will attempt to copy 0
    bytes from an uninitialized pointer. While the memcpy() implementation
    will treat this as a no-op and not actually dereferece the undefined
    variable it is still undefined behaviour to the compiler and should be
    fixed. Found by building with clang HEAD
