// Package daemon implements the privileged daemon process that owns
// the WebSocket transport, TUN device, and routing. It receives
// commands from the GUI over an IPC unix socket and broadcasts
// state/stats events back.
//
// The daemon is launched (as root) by the GUI via osascript. It holds
// no persistent state — all configuration is provided by the GUI in
// the Start command.
//
// The daemon accepts --user-home, --uid, and --gid flags so it can:
//   - Write logs to the user's ~/Library/Logs/ (not /var/root)
//   - Chown the IPC socket so the user can connect
//   - Chown log files so the user can read them
