Subject: service: avoid cryptic failure with old config

If user removes currently provided /etc/postgresql/postgresql
configuration file, PGDATA env variable is not set.  The
`systemctl start postgresql` would fail similarly to
`systemctl start postgresql@NOTCONFIGURED` when the configuration
file was not created yet with cryptic message
    "Usage: ... "

Stop this behavior rather explicitly with proper error in
check-db-dir script.

Warn also user in similar fashion that the configuration should be
adjusted in case the PGDATA was set directly in service file.
