ediblerope 3819cb6820 locale + crowdsec: pin timezone, declare static crowdsec user
Two failing services after the channel switch.

automatic-timezoned has been polkit-blocked since well before the
switch — replace with a static Europe/London timezone. Hosts that
travel can override locally if needed.

The vendored crowdsec module's setup unit chowns its config dir to
the (DynamicUser-allocated) crowdsec user via an ExecStartPre+ hack.
On stable's systemd the dynamic user isn't visible to chown via NSS
at that point, so it fails with 'invalid user'. Declaring crowdsec
as a static system user makes systemd use it (DynamicUser becomes a
no-op) and the chown resolves cleanly.
