Admin user should be customizable during installation

#190

Right now sitellite creates the "admin" user by default and only asks for an admin password during installation.

This is a huge security issue, because possible hackers can easily retrieve the admin credentials through sql injection or other means of hijacking.
If users create their own custom "superuser" account the risk of this happening is much much smaller.

Therefore, users also have to enter a custom administrator username while installing the sitellite cms.

    Added this feature by simply adding another input in the form and storing the input in the database, instead of a hardcoded "admin" user.
