Add new system account: iredadmin

We will make iRedAdmin run with Apache web server, but as non-apache, low privilege user: iredadmin.

# pw useradd -s /sbin/nologin -d /home/iredadmin -n iredadmin

Install necessary packages

Install several devel binary packages, used for building python modules.

# bash
# for p in www/mod_wsgi www/webpy databases/py-dbutils devel/py-Jinja2 databases/py-MySQLdb net/py-netifaces; do cd /usr/ports/${i} && make install clean; done
