Problem: Some applications (e.g., game servers like CS2, Rust) require their outbound connections to originate from the same public IP that handles incoming connections. Pangolin currently focuses on tunneling inbound requests to local services.

Solution: Extend Pangolin's functionality to allow specific outgoing traffic from the local network/host to be routed through the established WireGuard tunnel, effectively using the Pangolin egress point as its source IP for those connections. This would address scenarios where the source IP of outgoing game server traffic needs to match the public IP.

My ideal solution would be using wireguard with AllowedIps = 0.0.0.0/0 and just use pangolin as a normal "vpn"
