ovpn: fix NULL dereference when killing missing key

ovpn_crypto_kill_key assumes both crypto slots are populated and dereferences each slot before checking it. That is not guaranteed: a peer can have only one installed key, and the kill path may be asked to remove a key that is not present.

Read each slot once while holding the crypto state lock, check for NULL before looking at key_id, and only replace the slot that actually matches.
