Zhong Jianxin d9b3adca75 launchd: Set NumberOfFiles to 4096
The default maxfiles on macOS 11 and macOS 12 is 256, which is too low
for nix to work:

```
$ launchctl limit maxfiles
	maxfiles    256            unlimited
```

Set NumberOfFiles of nix-daemon to 4096 to avoid `Too many open files`
error.

Fix the nix-daemon Mac OS SSL CA cert
Mac OS multi-user installations are currently broken because all requests
made by nix-daemon to the binary cache fail with:

```
unable to download ... Problem with the SSL CA cert (path? access rights?) (77).
```

This change ensures that the nix-daemon knows where to find the SSL CA cert file.

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 &amp;&amp; /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.

Matthew Bauer 0847f2f1b3 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.

Matthew Bauer 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.

Matthew Bauer 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).

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.
