bug#35724: [PATCH] OpenVPN password prompts are not recognized by comint.el

 OpenVPN has a password prompt that is a little different than is
 handled by comint.el. It looks like this:
 
  Enter Auth Password:

 As a result, the plain text password is chown when entering in through
 shell-mode. The attached patch adds to ‘comint-password-prompt-regexp’
 handling for this case.

OpenVPN prompts look like:
