#60653: Allow ports to customize the launchd plist files in the destroot phase

-------------------------+-----------------------------
Currently MacPorts creates any launchd plists for startupitem /
startupitems keywords after the destroot phase is completely over, even
after any post-destroot blocks have run. This provides no opportunity for
portfiles to customize the launchd plist. Many ports have a desire to do
so and have had to resort to inelegant hacks like modifying the installed
plist in a post-activate block.
Can we instead create the plist before the destroot phase runs, or after
the main destroot command runs but before the post-destroot blocks?
