While hostname is numeric, start postfix failed
...
root at qemux86-64:~# hostname 1.2.3.4
root at qemux86-64:~# systemctl restart postfix
|Job for postfix.service failed because the control process exited
with error code. See "systemctl status postfix.service" and
"journalctl -xe" for details.

root at qemux86-64:~# systemctl status postfix -l
Dec 02 08:05:40 1.2.3.4 aliasesdb[535]: /usr/sbin/postconf: fatal: unable to use my own hostname

...

Refer meta/recipes-core/initscripts/initscripts-1.0/hostname.sh in oe-core,
add check_hostname.sh and invoke it before postfix start, if the hostname
is invalid, set "localhost" to main.cf.
