fix(postfix): allow maillog under /data prefixes

postfix check fatally rejects maillog_file=/data/log/mail.log when
maillog_file_prefixes still default to /var,/dev/stdout — FATAL often never
reaches stderr or the rejected log path. Add /data to prefixes and pin the
postlog master service required for file logging.
