📄 Description

This script fixes MeshAgent issue #161: MacOS Ventura - Not starting meshagent on boot (Maybe Solved)
https://github.com/Ylianst/MeshAgent/issues/161

The following actions are taken:

Add the eXecute bit for directory traversal for the installation directory. This allows regular users access to run the binary inside the directory, fixing the "meshagent" LaunchAgent integration with the user.
Rename the LaunchAgent "meshagent.plist" to prevent conflicts with the LaunchDaemon "meshagent.plist". This may not be needed but is done for good measure.
Rename the service Label inside the plist. Using "defaults" causes the plist to be rewritten in plist format, not ascii.
