Git Sagar 829ca73b1b initial commit: standalone SoftEther VPN client in Go
Built-in DHCP (raw Ethernet frames through tunnel), automatic reconnection,
host route management, classless static routes (option 121/249), DNS config.
Single static binary, Linux only.

// Package client implements the SoftEther VPN client handshake and session management.
//
// The connection flow follows the SoftEther protocol:
// 1. TLS connect (standard TLS, looks like HTTPS)
// 2. Upload signature ("VPNCONNECT" string via HTTP POST)
// 3. Download Hello (server sends version info + random challenge)
// 4. Upload Auth (client sends credentials + node info via HTTP POST)
// 5. Download Welcome (server sends session info if auth succeeds)
// 6. Enter tunneling mode (raw TCP block framing, no more HTTP)
//
// Reference: https://github.com/SoftEtherVPN/SoftEtherVPN/blob/v5.02.5187/src/Cedar/Protocol.c#L7145 (ClientConnectToServer flow)
