Jade Lovelace 69e2ee5b25 daemon: remove workaround for macOS kernel bug that seems fixed
This was filed as https://github.com/nixos/nix/issues/7584, but as far
as I can tell, the previous solution of POLLHUP works just fine on macOS
14. I've also tested on an ancient machine with macOS 10.15.7, which
also has POLLHUP work correctly.

It's possible this might regress some older versions of macOS that have
a kernel bug, but I went looking through the history on the sources and
didn't find anything that looked terribly convincingly like a bug fix
between 2020 and today. If such a broken version exists, it seems pretty
reasonable to suggest simply updating the OS.
