    Handle and log errors when OpenVPN fails to start
    
    When OpenVPN encouters a configuration error it will exit the process with
    error code 1 before beginning to bootstrap. This commit monkeypatches
    `processDirector.processExited` to log these pre-bootstrap OpenVPN configuration failures.
    
    This commit also replaces `handleAllFailures()` with `failureToString()`
    for generating the report content. `handleAllFailures()` causes difficult
    to debug errors. It silently raises an exception from `failure.trap()`
    if an unknown exception type is passed to it. Any raised Exception will causes
    the remaining error logging to be skipped making debugging difficult.
    
    Ooni should produce some sort of log message if an Exception is raised in
    `handleAllFailures()`.
