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.

Fixes #3125.

(cherry picked from commit 0847f2f1b3145a62dc34707ba788275ce6b6fc57)
