Travis A. Everett df36ff0d1e install-darwin: fix _nixbld uids for macOS sequoia
Starting in macOS 15 Sequoia, macOS daemon UIDs are encroaching on our
default UIDs of 301-332. This commit relocates our range up to avoid
clashing with the current UIDs of 301-304 and buy us a little time
while still leaving headroom for people installing more than 32 users.
