Let plugin_dispatch_values() set value_list.time in case of 'now'.
Basically any (read) plugin was calling time(NULL) to set the time of a values
list. This is now done by plugin_dispatch_values() in case the time is zero
(which is the case when using VALUE_LIST_INIT or VALUE_LIST_STATIC).
This change slightly simplifies the code and makes future changes to the time
management (like the possibly upcoming subsecond resolution support) less
intrusive in respect to the amount of required code changes.

Converted timeval_sub_timespec() to timeval_cmp().
The third (return) argument is now of type 'struct timeval' (instead of
'struct timespec') as well. Also, it may now be NULL, in which case the
difference is not returned. This is a more general and thus more flexible
approach that permitted to remove the custom timeval_sub*() implementations in
the multimeter and ntpd plugins.
The return value has been changed to reflect the return value used by
functions like strcmp(), i.e. it is less than, equal to, or greater than zero
if the first argument is less than, equal to, or greater than the second
argument respectively.
In the cases where a 'struct timespec' is required, the return value is now
converted by multiplying the tv_usec member with 1000.

collectd.conf(5): Added information about the openvpn plugin.

openvpn plugin: Add a plugin to read OpenVPN statistics.
Simple but useful module for monitoring per-client openvpn traffic..
The plugin reads a statistics file maintained by OpenVPN. The location of the
statistics file is configurable.

network plugin: Fix an invalid size of buffer being used.
When specifying the amount of data to copy, we used `sizeof (buffer)' where
`buffer' is a pointer, giving 4 or 8 bytes, depending on the architecture (and
not depending on the actual buffer size). This results in the `type' being sent
much more often than necessary and sometimes not sending a new type when is was
actually necessary. The only prominent case in the default configuration(s) was
`cpufreq' being used instead of `cpu', though.
While in the process, the global `type' buffer was replaced, because an
appropriate buffer is in `value_list_t' now.
Much thanks to Bruno Prémont for reporting and debugging this issue :)

This patch fixes the same problem as
6605ff1a, the insufficient copying of
values to the `type' buffer.

libcollectdclient: Don't use `PF_UNIX', it's broken on Mac OS X.
Under Mac OS X (10.4, possibly others), PF_UNIX is defined as PF_LOCAL, which
in turn is defined as AF_LOCAL. AF_LOCAL, however, is only defined if
POSIX_C_SOURCE is not.

src/utils_subst.[ch]: Implement `subst_string'.
Works like `subst', but instead of specifying start and end offsets you
specify `needle', the string that is to be replaced. If `needle' is found
in `string' (using strstr(3)), the offset is calculated and `subst' is
called with the determined parameters.
