Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating syncthing-macos's API-key configuration and backend-launch paths, then determine whether externally started Syncthing backends are supported; done means the supported mode reliably receives the correct API key and avoids an unnecessary offline state.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
I don't remember if we've already talked about this somewhere / sometime, but it would be neat if syncthing-macos automatically set an API key in the environment. As is, if the API key is wrong things will stay "offline" unnecessarily.
(Is it a supported mode of operation to have a syncthing backend started outside of syncthing-macos? If not, we don't really need to have this configurable at all.)
