Patch to security/tailscale/files/tailscaled.in
security/tailscale's rc script specifies a custom start_cmd. This prevents
rc.subr's default start command "builder" logic from running. Bypassing
rc.subr's default logic causes many of the documented rc.conf variables such as
${name}_nice and ${name}_oomprotect to not work.
All of the logic in the current start_cmd can be handled by a start_precmd, and
the invocation of /usr/sbin/daemon can be handled using the command and
command_args variables, as it is done in many other ports' rc scripts.
Refactoring tailscale's rc script this way allows all the rc.subr-documented
${name}_* variables to function as expected, and does not alter anything about
the way the current rc script invokes tailscaled.
Patch attached.
