James Carter dc4e54126b libsepol: Make an unknown permission an error in CIL
This patch is loosely based on a patch by Yuli Khodorkovskiy
<yuli@crunchydata.com> from June 13th, 2019.

Since any permission used in the policy should be defined, CIL
should return an error if it cannot resolve a permission used
in a policy. This was the original behavior of CIL.

The behavior was changed over three commits from July to November
2016 (See commits 46e157b47, da51020d6, and 2eefb20d8). The change
was motivated by Fedora trying to remove permissions from its
policy that were never upstreamed (ex/ process ptrace_child and
capability2 compromise_kernel). Local or third party modules
compiled with those permissions would break policy updates.

After three years it seems unlikely that we need to worry about
those local and third party modules and it is time for CIL to
give an error like it should.

Build dependencies on Fedora:
yum install audit-libs-devel bison bzip2-devel dbus-devel dbus-glib-devel flex flex-devel flex-static glib2-devel libcap-devel libcap-ng-devel pam-devel pcre-devel python3-devel python3-setools swig xmlto redhat-rpm-config

To build and install everything under a private directory, run:
make DESTDIR=~/obj install install-pywrap

To install as the default system libraries and binaries
(overwriting any previously installed ones - dangerous!),
on x86_64, run:
make LIBDIR=/usr/lib64 SHLIBDIR=/lib64 install install-pywrap relabel
or on x86 (32-bit), run:
make install install-pywrap relabel

This may render your system unusable if the upstream SELinux userspace
lacks library functions or other dependencies relied upon by your
distribution.  If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces.

To install libsepol on macOS (mainly for policy analysis):
cd libsepol; make PREFIX=/usr/local install

This requires GNU coreutils (brew install coreutils).
