[Bug 275608] Re: nm-openvpn swaps ca and cert in openvpn commandline

OK I think I got it.

When using authentication type "Password with Certificate (TLS)", the
two labels "CA certificate" and "User certificate" are swapped. If you
click on the corresponding file selector, the file selector dialog
window name correctly shows "Choose a Certificate Authority
certificate..." and "Choose your personal certificate...". It is just
the labels that are shown in the wrong order.

Reproduction:
Create a new VPN. Select authentication type "Certificate (TLS)". Select :
User Certificate: user.crt
CA Certificate: ca.crt
Private key: user.key
Switch to "authentication type "Password with certificate(TLS)". You get:
User name: <empty>
CA Certificate: user.crt
User Certificate: ca.crt
Private Key: user.key
Clicking on "user.crt" to correctly shows the file selector dialog box with title "Choose your personal certificate...".

Expected results:
When switching to "authentication type "Password with certificate(TLS)". You should get:
User name: <empty>
User Certificate: user.crt
CA Certificate: ca.crt
Private Key: user.key
