- PR #139529: feat(gateway): add bundle launchd job identity for grantable macOS TCC attribution

These members share one theme: making the macOS gateway LaunchAgent identifiable (rather than appearing as 'osascript') in Privacy & Security/TCC. Two are feature proposals adding launchd job identity options (a bundle identity and a launchd_network_identity switch), and one is a feature request describing the opaque-label problem.
