targets/darwin: add more options for configuring macOS (#1753)
Add new options Darwin options:

- `targets.darwin.defaults`
  This adds options for configuring macOS through the `defaults(1)` system.
  This option can be used to manipulate a vast majority of user settings for macOS
  and its applications.

  This is implemented using freeform modules and includes additional descriptions
  and type information for some useful options.

- `targets.darwin.keybindings`
  This adds options for configuring the default keybindings for macOS text fields.

- `targets.darwin.search`
  This adds options for configuring the default search engine for macOS.
