fix: Drop special bits from Postfix `maildrop/` and `public/` directory permissions (#3625)

* update K8s deployment

Because `allowPrivilegeEscalation` controls SUID/SGID, we require it
when postdrop is invoked.

* correct permissions for maildrop/public

The reason our permissions previously worked out as that in setups where
SUID/SGID worked, the binaries used to place files in these directories
already have SGID set; the current set of permissions makes less sense
(as explained in this comment:
https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver/issues/3619#issuecomment-1793816412)

Since the binaries used to place files inside these directories alredy
have SUID/SGID set, we do not require these bits (or the sticky bit) to
be set on the directories.

* Apply suggestions from code review
