[Bug 1451091] Re: new upstream version 5.2.2

Thanks for the example config.

The client will encode the identity as FQDN and the server is forced to
encode it as keyid (the content will be the same but the type is
different). So there won't be a match. Looking at the screenshot I'm not
sure how to configure a FQDN in the pfSense GUI, perhaps "Distinguished
name" even though the DN in FQDN stands for "domain name". Additionally,
the identity in ipsec.secrets on the server is also encoded as FQDN as
the prefix is missing (should probably be reported to pfSense). Also,
rightid is missing on the server, so authentication will fail anyway as
the server will default to the client's IP address, which won't match
the client's leftid (omnicon-59000000).

Selecting the identity type could make sense, but the identities would
have to be encoded properly (e.g. parse the configured string according
to the type and binary encode it, then prefix it), otherwise the result
will not be what the user intended (e.g. leftid=ipv4:192.168.0.1 is not
the same thing as leftid=192.168.0.1 or leftid=ipv4:#c0a80001).
