Command 'easyrsa_openssl makesafecnf' is used internally to create a safe SSL config file. (By status reports, read_db())

Once the safe SSL config file has been named as a temp-file and created, the script continues to use that temp-file as the master copy, it does not recreate a safe SSL config file for subsequent calls to easyrsa_openssl().

Therefore, the temp-file MUST be copied to the standard safe SSL file not moved. Otherwise, the named temp-file is removed.

Also, move the assignment of the safe SSL temp-file to the correct place. This means that a new temp-file wiill only be assigned once.

Also, verify that the safe SSL temp-file exists when it is expected to.

Other changes are for error and verbose messages.
