Describe the bug
When using OpenVPN over Shadowsocks, it's currently not possible to properly create new users. Each time a new user is added, the same configuration file is generated (identical to the previous one). Additionally, new users are not visible in the “User” section of the interface.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Steps to reproduce the behavior:
  2. Go to the Amnezia VPN UI
  3. Choose OpenVPN over Shadowsocks
  4. Add a new user
  5. Check the config — it's the same as before

Expected behavior
Each newly created user should have a unique configuration file.
All created users should appear in the "User" section for management.
It should be possible to view and copy the config for each existing user.

Log files
Attach log files to help explain your problem.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Additional context
Please also consider adding the ability to view and copy configuration files of already existing users, as this is very important for managing deployed clients.
