Please implement port reload (or port restart) command, which will do something similar to:

optional: without disabling/enabling OSX launchd autostart.

I've implemented it in simple copy&paste way.
Actually I believe load/unload/reload commands could use common codebase because it's really copypasted here, but I don't know tcl enough to optimize it.

launchctl stop is basically a restart for any job with KeepAlive set, as it will be immediately started again.

man launchctl says about stop that "Use of this subcommand is discouraged".

Duplicate of #36054.

At the moment,
port loadandport unloadsimply directly calllaunchctl. To my knowledge, there is nolaunchctlequivalent for a restart or reload command. Perhaps we should check if there is any literature on the best method to restart a launchd-controlled service.
