Description
### What is the issue?
Feature is highly undocumented but according to code comments from this [this](https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale/commit/73d128238e123c92af985fee6e1d7c78c09e4d99) commit it should be visible under ~/Library/Containers/io.tailscale.ipn.macsys/Data/tailscaled-env.txt which is where the HOME within the sandbox should be. But that directory does not even exist and even if you make it, tailscaled-env.txt is not applied. Going by code logic it should be under the home of one of the ~/Library/Containers tailscale folder homes, which are **/Data/, but putting tailscaled-env.txt under none of them work.
```
./io.tailscale.ipn.macsys.share-extension/Data/tailscaled-env.txt
./io.tailscale.ipn.macsys.login-item-helper/Data/tailscaled-env.txt
./io.tailscale.ipn.macsys/Data/tailscaled-env.txt
```
### Steps to reproduce
Add tailscaled-env.txt files to destinations as given by https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale/blob/main/envknob/envknob.go comments for the standalone and app store versions
Checkable using TS_DEBUG_MTU values and ifconfig
