helper is sometimes unloaded after MacOS upgrades

[tronghn]

The naisdevice helper is sometimes unloaded from the launch daemon after MacOS upgrades.

This results in being unable to connect with naisdevice. The agent log contains the following lines:

time="2024-01-25T10:12:32+01:00" level=error msg="rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = connection error: desc = \"transport: Error while dialing: dial unix /var/run/naisdevice/helper.sock: connect: no such file or directory\"" component=main
time="2024-01-25T10:12:33+01:00" level=error msg="sending notification: exit status 1" component=main

Usually fixable by exiting naisdevice, running

sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/io.nais.device.helper.plist

and restarting naisdevice.

We should look into why this happens and remediate the issue.
