There is some additional information needed for fully private macOS swiftly
installations. Add this information to the automated installation guide.

installer -pkg swiftly.pkg -target CurrentUserHomeDirectory
```

You could be installing swiftly on a shared user account for macOS. In that case you might want to extract the pkg in a private location where it cannot be affected by other processes running in the same user account.
