page request: macOS internal daemons and agents

Most of these can be reduced to the following template:

# foobard

> This does foobar.
> It should not be invoked manually.
> More information: <https://keith.github.io/xcode-man-pages/foobard.8.html>.

- Start the daemon:

`foobard`

A good alternative if manpagez doesn't have the man page is https://keith.github.io/xcode-man-pages/foobard.8.html. Use https://keith.github.io/xcode-man-pages for the man pages.

And by the way: I'm testing a tldrgal feature right now that's gonna make them super simple.

A few of there might be available on other OSes, too, especially FreeBSD. If you notice that, please create it in common.

How to find them

tldrgal missing | grep 'd$' # if you have tldrgal in your PATH
ls /usr/share/man/man8/
ls -lh `fd -t file . /System/Library/Frameworks | grep -vE '\.[a-zA-Z]+$' | grep -v 'CodeResources$'` --color=always | grep x | grep -v 'Python\.framework' # needs fd
ls /usr/libexec/

I also sometimes just see something in Activity Monitor and wonder what it's doing
