[MaaS 2.5 Snap] Please support custom database port in maas init/upgrade

Features
1

so we want a HA setup with external database
snap install is a good way to go,

however, it doesn’t allow us to specify database port to use, and since snap app is running on read only fs, I have to do some mount trick like sudo mount --bind -o nodev,ro /tmp/maas-config.py /snap/maas/current/lib/python3.6/site-packages/maasserver/config.py to make it work.

But it will broken if I update snap app.

Thank you!
Is there any timeline to cut out next stable snap release?

We are currently on holiday for the next 2/3 weeks, so will likely happen in a month or so.
