Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ProxymanApp/Proxyman/issues/1302

Originally assigned to: @NghiaTranUIT on GitHub.

Problem

Currently, when installing & trusting a new certificate, Proxyman performs it under System Keychain. Thus, it requires the sudo permission TWICE ❌

During working on the Windows version, it turns out we just need to install & trust the cert in the User Keychain. As a result, only sudo permission 1 time ✅

Acceptance Criteria

Install & Trust the certificate on the user keychain (Not the system keychain)
Verify the following step:

No SSL error on macOS
Work with iOS & Android
Able to delete, check status, export

Able to install & trust the Root Certificate with 1 Sudo (Password or TouchID)
Install the cert to Login Keychain (Not System)

Note: The Macbook always displays the username/password if we're recording the screen. It totally works fine with Touch ID.
