The function $f(x)$ has the property that, for some real positive constant $C$, the expression \[\frac{f^{(n)}(x)}{n+x+C}\] is independent of $n$ for all nonnegative integers $n$, provided that $n+x+C\neq 0$. Given that $f'(0)=1$ and $\int_{0}^{1}f(x) \, dx = C+(e-2)$, determine the value of $C$. Note: $f^{(n)}(x)$ is the $n$-th derivative of $f(x)$, and $f^{(0)}(x)$ is defined to be $f(x)$.
