Ask users for postcode #250

What

Help users give us their postcode.

See also #226 (Asking users to give us their address) and https://design-system.service.gov.uk/patterns/addresses/

Why

In some coronavirus services, like the coronavirus status checker (now decommissioned) we've asked for postcode data to help monitor the spread of the virus. We don't always need the actual address.
