macOS, FreeBSD and Linux now support receiving supplementary groups during UNIX domain authentication to a Lix daemon.

This change is particularly beneficial for systemd units with DynamicUser=true that need to connect to a Lix daemon, using a SupplementaryGroups= allocated by systemd in the context of the process. This is desirable if you wish to harden Lix clients.
