Production and development binaries

Production binary: 
pioneer
Development binary: 
pioneer-dev
The development binary is built with: 
cargo run -p pioneer-cli --features dev --bin pioneer-dev -- help
Development uses separate config, service name, runtime home, install paths, and default port.

Service behavior

pioneer start registers and starts a persistent user-level service. pioneer stop stops and unregisters the service. The service runs as the current OS user.
Tool runs execute as the user account running the gateway service.
