Improve backup restore
CREATE DATABASE was running in a transaction block with CREATE USER. This isn't allowed (any more?). This is now two separate commands. I also did some other touch-ups including * making it OTP-first, * add backup of static directory because this contains e.g. custom emoji, and * remove the suggestion for using the setup_db.psql file. The reason is because I fear it causes more confusion than what it's worth. * Firstly, OTP installations won't have this file because it's created in /tmp. * Secondly, the instance has been reinstalled and thus a new setup_db.psql with different password may have been created, causing only more confusion.

Restore the database schema and akkoma role[¹] (replace the password with the one you find in the configuration file), `sudo -Hu postgres psql -c "CREATE USER akkoma WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD '<database-password-wich-you-can-find-in-your-configuration-file>';"` `sudo -Hu postgres psql -c "CREATE DATABASE akkoma OWNER akkoma;"`.

[²]: You can recreate the `config/setup_db.psql` by running the `mix pleroma.instance gen` task again. You can ignore most of the questions, but make the database user, name, and password the same as found in your backed up config file. This will also create a new `config/generated_config.exs` file which you may delete as it is not needed.

[²]: If you have a from source installation, the command is `MIX_ENV=prod mix ecto.migrate`. Note that we prefix with `MIX_ENV=prod` to use the `config/prod.secret.exs` configuration file.

[³]: Prefix with `MIX_ENV=prod` to run it using the production config file.
