virt-aa-helper: don't deny writes to readonly mounts
There is no need to deny writes on a readonly mount: write still won't be accepted, even if the user remounts the folder as RW in the guest as qemu sets the 9p mount as ro. This deny rule was leading to problems for example with readonly /: The qemu process had to write to a bunch of files in / like logs, sockets, etc. This deny rule was also preventing auditing of these denials, making it harder to debug.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

Description
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.
