launchd services do not inherit the shell environment, so Node's undici/fetch
cannot locate the macOS system CA bundle (/etc/ssl/cert.pem). This causes TLS
verification failures for all HTTPS requests (e.g. Telegram, webhooks) when the
gateway runs as a LaunchAgent, while the same gateway works fine in a terminal.
Add NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS defaulting to /etc/ssl/cert.pem on macOS in both
buildServiceEnvironment and buildNodeServiceEnvironment. User-supplied
NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS is always respected and takes precedence.
Fixes#22856

On macOS, `openclaw gateway install` hardcodes the system node
(/opt/homebrew/bin/node) in the launchd plist, ignoring the node from
version managers (fnm/nvm/volta). This causes the Gateway to run a
different node version than the user's shell environment.
Two fixes:
1. `resolvePreferredNodePath` now checks `process.execPath` first.
If the currently running node is a supported version, use it directly.
This respects the user's active version manager selection.
2. `buildMinimalServicePath` now includes version manager bin directories
on macOS (fnm, nvm, volta, pnpm, bun), matching the existing Linux
behavior.

* fix(linux): add user bin directories to systemd service PATH
Fixes#1503
On Linux, the systemd service PATH was hardcoded to only include system
directories (/usr/local/bin, /usr/bin, /bin), causing binaries installed
via npm global with custom prefix or node version managers to not be found.
This adds common Linux user bin directories to the PATH:
- ~/.local/bin (XDG standard, pip, etc.)
- ~/.npm-global/bin (npm custom prefix)
- ~/bin (user's personal bin)
- Node version manager paths (nvm, fnm, volta, asdf)
- ~/.local/share/pnpm (pnpm global)
- ~/.bun/bin (Bun)
User directories are added before system directories so user-installed
binaries take precedence.
