Miroslav Los c019350a76 security: AppArmor allow write when os loader readonly=no
Since libvirt commit 3ef9b51b10,
the pflash storage for the os loader file follows its read-only flag,
and qemu tries to open the file for writing if set so.

This patches virt-aa-helper to generate the VM's AppArmor rules
that allow this, using the same domain definition flag and default.

Libvirt API for virtualization

Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
