Please, fix Readme,

If you use one addition account it would created, if you use more than one additional account them would not be created.

VPN_ADDL_USERS=additional_username_1 additional_username_2
VPN_ADDL_PASSWORDS=additional_password_1 additional_password_2

should be:

VPN_ADDL_USERS='additional_username_1 additional_username_2'
VPN_ADDL_PASSWORDS='additional_password_1 additional_password_2'

With comma it works.

@Zagrebelsky Hello! Docker parses variables in env files "literally", with no special handling for single and double quotes (they won't be removed) [1]. Therefore, the original README is correct. Try it yourself and you'll see why.

There is no special handling of quotation marks. This means that they are part of the VAL.
