libsepol carried its own (outdated) copy of flask.h with the generated
security class and initial SID values for use by the policy
compiler and the forked copy of the security server code
leveraged by tools such as audit2why. Convert libsepol and
checkpolicy entirely to looking up class values from the policy,
remove the SECCLASS_* definitions from its flask.h header, and move
the header with its remaining initial SID definitions private to
libsepol. While we are here, fix the sepol_compute_sid() logic to
properly support features long since added to the policy and kernel,
although there are no users of it other than checkpolicy -d (debug)
and it is not exported to users of the shared library. There
are still some residual differences between the kernel logic and
libsepol.

Remove restrictions in libsepol and checkpolicy that required all
declared initial SIDs to be assigned a context. With this patch,
it is possible to build and load a policy that drops the sid <sidname>
<context> declarations for the unused initial SIDs. It is still
required to retain the sid <sidname> declarations (in the flask
definitions) in order to preserve the initial SID ordering/values.
The unused initial SIDs can be renamed, e.g. to add an unused_
prefix or similar, if desired, since the names used in the policy
are not stored in the kernel binary policy.
In CIL policies, the (sid ...) and (sidorder (...)) statements
must be left intact for compatibility but the (sidcontext ...)
statements for the unused initial SIDs can be omitted after this change.
With current kernels, if one removes an unused initial SID context
from policy, builds policy with this change applied and loads the
policy into the kernel, cat /sys/fs/selinux/initial_contexts/<sidname>
will show the unlabeled context. With the kernel patch to remove unused
initial SIDs, the /sys/fs/selinux/initial_contexts/<sidname>
file will not be created for unused initial SIDs in the first place.
NB If an unused initial SID was assigned a context different from
the unlabeled context in existing policy, then it is not safe to
remove that initial SID context from policy and reload policy on
the running kernel that was booted with the original policy. This
is because that kernel may have assigned that SID to various kernel
objects already and those objects will then be treated as having
the unlabeled context after the removal. In refpolicy, examples
of such initial SIDs are the "fs" SID and the "sysctl" SID. Even
though these initial SIDs are not directly used (in code) by the current
kernel, their contexts are being applied to filesystems and sysctl files by
policy and therefore the SIDs are being assigned to objects.
NB The "sysctl" SID was in use by the kernel up until
commit 8e6c96935fcc1ed3dbebc96fddfef3f2f2395afc ("security/selinux:
fix /proc/sys/ labeling) circa v2.6.39. Removing its context from
policy will cause sysctl(2) or /proc/sys accesses to end up
performing permission checks against the unlabeled context and
likely encounter denials for kernels < 2.6.39.

Most of the users of ebitmap_for_each_bit() macro only care for the set
bits, so introduce a new ebitmap_for_each_positive_bit() macro that
skips the unset bits. Replace uses of ebitmap_for_each_bit() with the
new macro where appropriate.

Presently we support xperms rules in source policy and in CIL modules.
The binary policy module format however was never extended for xperms.
This limitation inhibits use of xperms in refpolicy-based policy modules
(including the selinux-testsuite policy). Update libsepol to support
linking, reading, and writing a new binary policy module version that
supports xperms rules. Update dismod to display xperms rules in binary
policy modules.
Also, to support use of a non-base binary policy module with a newer
version on a system using a base policy module with an older version,
automatically upgrade the version during module linking. This facilitates
usage of newer features in non-base modules without requiring rebuilding
the base module.
Tests:
1. Add an allowxperms rule to the selinux-testsuite policy and
confirm that it is properly written to the binary policy module
(displayed by dismod), converted to CIL (the latter was already supported),
and included in the kernel policy (via dispol and kernel test).
2. Use semodule_link and semodule_expand to manually link and expand
all of the .pp files via libsepol, and confirm that the allowxperms rule
is correctly propagated to the kernel policy. This test is required to
exercise the legacy link/expand code path for binary modules that predated
CIL.

In C, defining a function with () means "any number of parameters", not
"no parameter". Use (void) instead where applicable and add unused
parameters when needed.

Either by dropping the parameter or marking it as unused depending on
what works. We can't redefine hashtab_map callbacks as they must take all
three options, so just mark those unused.

This patch adds support for using the last path component as part of the
information in making labeling decisions for new objects. A example
rule looks like so:
type_transition unconfined_t etc_t:file system_conf_t eric;
This rule says if unconfined_t creates a file in a directory labeled
etc_t and the last path component is "eric" (no globbing, no matching
magic, just exact strcmp) it should be labeled system_conf_t.
The kernel and policy representation does not have support for such
rules in conditionals, and thus policy explicitly notes that fact if
such a rule is added to a conditional.
