[pgpool-committers: 6289] pgpool: Start pgpool using "postgres" user by default.

Start pgpool using "postgres" user by default.

Currently the Pgpool-II startup user is "root" user.
Because of the security reason, startup Pgpool-II
using non-root user is recommended.

For this reason, I modified "pgpool.service" file to start
Pgpool using  "postres" user, and allow "postrges" user to
run "if_up/down_cmd" and "arping_cmd" with sudo without a password.

The default setting of "if_up/down_cmd" and "arping_cmd" is changed:

    if_up_cmd = '/usr/bin/sudo /sbin/ip addr add $_IP_$/24 dev eth0 label eth0:0'
    if_down_cmd = '/usr/bin/sudo /sbin/ip addr del $_IP_$/24 dev eth0'
    arping_cmd = '/usr/bin/sudo /usr/sbin/arping -U $_IP_$ -w 1 -I eth0'

If if_up/down_cmd or arping_cmd starts with "/",
the setting specified in "if_cmd_path" or "arping_path" will be ignored.

This patch also changes all of the config files permission to 600.
