Fix the following issue:

Operator-managed Pods rejected under the Restricted Pod Security Standard

We're rolling postgres-operator out into a cluster where namespaces enforce the Kubernetes Restricted Pod Security Standard. When the operator brings up its Postgres pods in such a namespace, the API server rejects them (or, with warn/audit configured, surfaces a warning for every container) because the containers' SecurityContext does not satisfy the Restricted profile.

Looking at RestrictedSecurityContext() in internal/initialize/security.go, most of what Restricted requires is already there — runAsNonRoot, dropped capabilities, no privilege escalation, read-only root filesystem, etc. — but the resulting pods still trip the Restricted check, so the defaults aren't quite "Restricted-compliant" out of the box.

For an operator that's clearly trying to ship a hardened SecurityContext (RestrictedSecurityContext is even the function name), it would be great if pods produced by it could be deployed into a Restricted-enforcing namespace without the user having to layer extra mutating webhooks or post-process the generated specs.
