Hey there,  
with the current rc.d script, vaultwarden doesn't write to the log file, if it
gets rotated by
[newsyslog.conf(5)](https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=newsyslog.conf).

Example configuration:
```
# logfilename               [owner:group]   mode    count   size    when   
flags   [/pid_file]                             [sig_num]
/var/log/vaultwarden.log    www:wheel       640     5       10240   *       JC 
    /var/run/vaultwarden/vaultwarden.pid    SIGUSR1
```

After some digging, i've found out that
[daemon(8)](https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?daemon(8)) is being used and it
has one argument (`-r`) which restarts the child process, if it has been
terminated.

I've tested it with `-r` in the `command_args` and ran `newsyslog`:  
The log file got rotated and the vaultwarden process wrote to the new log file
- as expected.

Would it be possible to integrate that argument in the `command_args` of the
rc.d script?

There is one caveat that needs some consideration:  
If the child process fails to start - due to what ever reason - it would
continuously been started again?

Regards,
Oliver
