Previously, the image repository name was automatically computed from
the packages in the manifest without allowing the user to set a custom
one. As such, changing the packages in the manifest would result in a
new image name. Thereby requiring updating documentation et cetera when
using `docker load` directory on the resulting image.
Inspired by `docker build -t`, this commit adds a new Docker-specific
option to `guix pack` which allows setting a custom repository name for
the resulting image. If this option is not specified, pack falls back
to computing the name from the manifest. Therefore, this change is
entirely backwards compatible.

Add 'createAccount?', 'uid' and 'gid' to <postgresql-configuation>.
Unlike other system daemons, the PostgreSQL data directory is typically
meant to persist across 'guix system reconfigure' and once created, you
don't want it's UID or GID to change anymore.
Furthermore, if you want to place the data directory on a network share
and use NFSv4 with idmap, then the 'postgres' user must exist when the
'rpc.idmapd' daemon is launched; prior to mounting the share. And it
needs to be possible to mount the share without configuring PostgreSQL.
With NFSv3, the UID and GID typically needs to match those on the
server.
The added options allow for both of these scenarios:
You can either create the user in (operating-system (users)) completely
independently of the 'postgresql-service-type' (for instance to get your
NFS setup working first prior to configuring your databases) - or "pin"
it's UID / GID values.
