 As Paul noted having the super user credential prompt in stack uilder is
 only useful for the "Create spatial database" and frankly installer
 shouldn't be doing that. So we should get rid of it in the installer.

 Now that we have CREATE EXTENSION we should just have people do that.
 Might e useful as a final dialog or something to note the various create
 extension options:

 Because creating the sample database installs


 {{{
 CREATE EXTENSION postgis;
 CREATE EXTENSION postgis_topology;
 CREATE EXTENSION postgis_tiger_geocoder;
 CREATE EXTENSION pgrouting;
 }}}


 and for 2.2 we'll be including point cloud as well.  Would be useful for
 people to be aware of all these packaged extensions in some easy way.
