api.protonmail.ch/vpn/logicals now returns 401 unauthenticated, so the
ProtonVPN provider cannot import at all (update.py:689-794). Proton uses SRP --
a password-authenticated key exchange where the password never crosses the wire.

The current code sends an unauthenticated GET.

Best done after the provider base class exists, so SRP is an auth strategy on
one provider rather than a special case inside a long method. Manual .ovpn
import is the working alternative meanwhile.
