ENT-14169: Fixed cf-postgres.service race in hub postinstall DB setup (3.24.x)#2301
Merged

Conversation
The %post scriptlet starts its own PostgreSQL instance to initialize/migrate database, but cf-postgres.service has `Restart=always`, so systemd races it for port 5432 and the data directory. The scriptlet's subsequent `pg_ctl stop` fails with `PID file does not exist` and aborts under `set -e`. Ticket: ENT-14169 Signed-off-by: Ihor Aleksandrychiev <ihor.aleksandrychiev@northern.tech> (cherry picked from commit d77517c)
