OpenBSD 6.9 includes a new daemon_logger variable which may be set to automatically set the syslog facility that the process will write to. This lets us simplify our example service by avoiding the need to redefine the rc_start function. While here, update some of the default flags to more closely match what I now recommend. /var is too small for block data on many installations, so it is better to write all of the application data to the /home partition instead. This also fixes the comment for how to enable the service, since just defining the flags is not sufficient for this.
