34bf1a8b5f Make nix-daemon.plist less fragile on macOS
We're calling `wait4path` on the full, resolved `@bindir@/nix-daemon` path.

That means we're hardcoding something like:

    /bin/wait4path /nix/store/zs9c5xhp3zv9p23qnjxp87nl5injsi1i-nix-2.3/bin/nix-daemon && /nix/var/nix/profiles/default/bin/nix-daemon

That seems unnecessarily fragile.

It might be better to wait4path on the path we intend to call.

7a011ded77 Copy instead of linking launch agent
On Catalina, the /nix filesystem might not be mounted at start time.
To avoid this service not starting, we need to keep the launch agent
outside of the Nix store. A wait4pid will hold for our /nix dir to be
mounted.

Fixes #3125.

87c604c1f0 Fix launchd program args
launchd has some weird syntx. Apparently the program needs to be in
the ProgramArguments, as Program appears to be ignored.

800fba1037 Use wait4path on org.nixos.nix-daemon.plist
When using a volume, the nix-daemon path may not exist. To avoid this
issue, we must use the wait4path tool. This should solve one of the
issues in multi-user on macOS Catalina.

nix-daemon: add variable to disable fork safety
Since macOS 10.14 this has become an error, causing problems if the
nix-daemon loads nix during substitution (this is a forked process).

Workaround for #2523.

launchd: enable keepalive for the nix-daemon service
Without this the daemon won't be restarted if the process ever dies, for
example when sending a SIGHUP to reload nix.conf.

Provide a builtin default for $NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE
This is mostly to ensure that when Nix is started on macOS via a
launchd service or sshd (for a remote build), it gets a certificate
bundle.

fb2dd32100 SSL_CERT_FILE -> NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE
This prevents collisions with the "native" OpenSSL, in particular on
OS X.

Fixes #921.
