bitcoind-prometheus-exporter: grant read access to bitcoin.conf
The exporter reads rpc credentials from bitcoin.conf but the bitcoind
role writes it 0600 bitcoin:bitcoin, so the prometheus user could
never read it (only long-lived processes predating the tightened mode
kept working). Make the conf group-readable and add prometheus to the
bitcoin group.
