Add ProcessPriority option.
...
This option can be set to low, normal or high. On UNIX flavours, this changes
the nice value of the process by +10, 0 and -10 respectively. On Windows, it
sets the priority to BELOW_NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS, NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS and
HIGH_PRIORITY_CLASS respectively.
A high priority might help to reduce latency and packet loss on the VPN.

Implement privilege dropping
...
Add two options, -R/--chroot and -U/--user=user, to chroot to the
config directory (where tinc.conf is located) and to perform
setuid to the user specified, after all the initialization is done.
What's left is handling of pid file since we can't remove it anymore.

Allow weight to be assigned to Subnets.
...
Tinc allows multiple nodes to own the same Subnet, but did not have a sensible
way to decide which one to send packets to. Tinc also did not check the
reachability of nodes when deciding where to route packets to, so it would not
automatically fail over to a reachable node.
Tinc now assigns a weight to each Subnet. The default weight is 10, with lower
weights having higher priority. The Subnets are now internally sorted in the
same way as the kernel's routing table, and the Subnets are search linearly,
skipping those of unreachable nodes. A small cache of recently used addresses
is used to speed up the lookup functions.
