#59993: Plist for certbot?

-------------------------+---------------------
I recently installed certbot to handle automatic creation/renewal of
certificates for my local development web-server.
The port works great, but one thing that seems missing is a default
mechanism for handling renewal.
I would like to recommend that the certbot port be given a plist, as for
daemons, but instead of running daemondo, will instead run
/opt/local/bin/certbot renew once a week, to prevent a user's certificates
from expiring. This command only renews certificates when they are within
30 days of expiring, so once a month is too slow, but once a week should
be fine as it fits with the general recommendation to renew between 60 and
90 days after the 90-day certificate was issued.
This will allow users of certbot with auto-renew plugins (such as certbot-
nginx) to very easily setup auto-renewal.
