>Just add those files to the global gitignore on your machine

While global gitignore is a nice feature, it won't protect users who do not know they need to create a global ignore file.
Adding explicit excludes for well-known temporary files into PostgreSQL sources makes it easier to work with the sources for everybody.
Less manual configuration is better for having a productive environment.

On top of that, there is even a use-case for having .idea folder in Git:
.idea/icon.png and .idea/icon_dark.png files are displayed in JetBrains IDEs so the list of projects becomes easier to distinguish.
AFAIK, a standard icon configuration does not yet exist: https://github.com/editorconfig/editorconfig/issues/425
