Package upgrade from 1.559 to 1.560 on Debian systems fails with:

dpkg: error processing jenkins (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

due to the:

addgroup --system --quiet jenkins

call in postinst without checking whether corresponding group already exists.

debian: Use a configurable group for the Jenkins user
Typical Debian practice is to have one equally-named group per system
user. Make that for the jenkins user by default, but allow it to be
overridden in /etc/default/jenkins, same as for the user name.

This change also deleted the check for the existing Jenkins user (for whatever reason, but that's also broken).

I'm working on a fix/PR right now.
