Description
Whilst #50 provides support for the VPN to start and stop itself on wake and sleep, I discovered the VPN does not wake itself when the device is slept for a prolonged period of time, instead indicating a crash that occurred whilst slept.
The error message shown is a generic message from the operating system when the network extension process is killed unexpectedly.
Console.app crash logs would suggest this is a panic (or a fatal error: panic + os.exit) in the .dylib:
Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT)
Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000
Termination Reason: Namespace SIGNAL, Code 6 Abort trap: 6

This crash occurred about 2 hours after putting the device to sleep. I've been unable to replicate the crash in a shorter timeframe.
I was also able to reproduce the crash with the dylib downloading commented out, which rules out any weird interactions with unquarantining a newly downloaded dylib with dev.coder.com restarts
Additionally, I've not seen or heard of this problem present on older versions of Coder Desktop - versions that don't start & stop the VPN on sleep & wake. Some users have had CoderVPN running for days without a crash (albeit with the workspace state out-of-date)
