Daemon Lifecycle

  • We’ll embed the daemon in Coder Desktop as described in the [mutagen docs.](https://mutagen.io/documentation/introduction/daemon/)
    • We’ll use a data directory under the main Coder Desktop data directory to ensure our instance of mutagen doesn’t interfere with other instances on the system (i.e. directly installed by the end user).
  • We’ll use Mutagen’s existing autostart capability if possible, and avoid implementing our own autostart.
    • Technical risk: Support is listed as experimental. If we find problems we should be prepared to roll our own lifecycle management.
    • call mutagen daemon register when first file sync is created
    • call mutagen daemon unregister when last file sync is deleted, or file sync disabled entirely.

feat: adds mutagen daemon controller (#58)
13ce6b9 
fixes coder/internal#380

Adds MutagenController service, which manages the lifecycle of the `mutagen` daemon and exposes methods to query and modify sync sessions.

Sync sessions themselves are a placeholder which will need to be filled out and plumbed thru to the actual API. This just handles daemon lifecycle for now.
