Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
go daemon startup is tightly coupled to app startup. If you start IPFS desktop and the node fails to start due to repo lock or other issue, users have no ability to get things working without a full app restart.
We're all familiar with this screen which is indicative that a full app restart, or separate daemon start (via CLI) is required:

**Describe the solution you'd like**
ipfs go daemon status should be toggle-able, restartable, stoppable, etc, from the ipfs desktop application
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
N/A
**Additional context**
