Network extension apps are just like ordinary apps, only they can utilize the
utun interface and create VPN entries. So I think, yes, tinc need to be linked
from such apps.

link to and link from is mark as the main application's view, so, for
NE extension it's link to libtinc( if there is a libtinc lib), that's
forbidden by GPL.
