main/postgresql: create postgres account
This change was made due to complains that /etc/passwd contains system
accounts with login shells, postgres being one of them [0].
Setting the shell of the postgres account to /sbin/nologin was not
deemed feasible as the official document suggests login in as the
postgres user via su(1) [1]. Other Linux distribution (Debian, Gentoo,
Arch) also create the account with a shell.
Not creating the postgres account by default (via alpine-baselayout) and
instead creating it on demand from the package was deemed a reasonable
compromise.
