Allow PostgreSQL to be accessed from an external application

Useful to be able to access the database from a graphical client (like pgAdmin 4, TablePlus or Postico for example).

1. Expose the 5432 TCP port from the container to the host by adding this line to the expose: section of containers/app.yml :

- "5432:5432"

2. Rebuild the container to take into account modifications to app.yml :

.launcher rebuild app

3. Enter into the container, login as the default postgresql user, add a new user and grant it all perms to the database

./launcher enter app
sudo -u postgres psql discourse
CREATE USER my_username WITH PASSWORD 'my_password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE "discourse" to my_username;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA public TO my_username;
