Use dh-sequence-installsysusers for system user/group creation

Switch the openldap system user/group creation to a declarative
debian/slapd.sysusers config file, wired up via
dh-sequence-installsysusers. The manual addgroup/adduser logic in
slapd.scripts-common is no longer needed and the dependency on adduser
can be dropped from slapd.

sysusers.d config files allow a package to use declarative configuration
instead of manually written maintainer scripts.
This also allows image-based systems to be created with /usr/ only, and
also allows for factory resetting a system and recreating /etc/ on boot.
