Prevents the VPN startup from hanging for 5 minutes due to a startup backoff if
wintun.dllcannot be loaded.Because the
wintunpackage doesn't expose an easyLoad() errormethod for us, the only way for us to force it to load (without unwanted side effects) is throughwintun.Version()which doesn't return an error message.So, we call that function so the
wintunpackage loads the DLL and configures the logging properly, then we try to load the DLL ourselves.LoadLibraryExwill not load the library multiple times and returns a reference to the existing library.Closes coder/coder-desktop-windows#24
