* Removed unused `.package`-option.
* Added explicit postgresql support.
* Create a new meta-package for mailman to make sure each component has
the **same** python and packages can be downgraded if needed (e.g.
psycopg2 or sqlalchemy) without interfering with `pythonPackages` in any way.
* Document why certain python overrides are needed.
Closes#170035Closes#158424
Recent versions had increased the amount of indentation, which stopped
this applying. The next version will also change the case, so I've
adjusted in advance for that too.
* Make it clearer what code comments apply to
* Fix the state directory (this was changed in the update)
* Add m1cr0man as a maintaner

Previously, some files were copied into the Nixpkgs tree, which meant
we wouldn't easily be able to update them, and was also just messy.
The reason it was done that way before was so that a few NixOS
options could be substituted in. Some problems with doing it this way
were that the _package_ changed depending on the values of the
settings, which is pretty strange, and also that it only allowed those
few settings to be set.
In the new model, mailman-web is a usable package without needing to
override, and I've implemented the NixOS options in a much more
flexible way. NixOS' mailman-web config file first reads the
mailman-web settings to use as defaults, but then it loads another
configuration file generated from the new services.mailman.webSettings
option, so _any_ mailman-web Django setting can be customised by the
user, rather than just the three that were supported before. I've
kept the old options, but there might not really be any good reason to
keep them.
