no point doing that in post-install, the dir is created by the

is that actually useful? I suggest not unless there's a need for it

I'm not going to run this to test, but presumably --detach is a required
flag for running as a daemon, so it should go as part of "daemon",
leaving the (overridable) --config-file bit in daemon_flags.

/var/db/monero might be better than /var/monero

/var/log/monero/monero.log seems a better location (with whatever
PLIST tweaks are needed to create the dir with correct perms)
