David Sommerseth f9ebfe1b5a doc: The CRL processing is not a deprecated feature
The note related to the CRL processing was somehow put into
the deprecated section.  This is quite confusing.

Since this is a fairly important change, and there have been
a noticable amount of supports questions related to OpenVPN
not starting due to CRL errors, I put this into the
"New features" section labelled as an improvement.  Otherwise
I fear this would drown in the list of "User-visible Changes"
later on.
