Paul Moore 740b03414b selinux: add support for the io_uring access controls
This patch implements two new io_uring access controls, specifically
support for controlling the io_uring "personalities" and
IORING_SETUP_SQPOLL.  Controlling the sharing of io_urings themselves
is handled via the normal file/inode labeling and sharing mechanisms.

The io_uring { override_creds } permission restricts which domains
the subject domain can use to override it's own credentials.
Granting a domain the io_uring { override_creds } permission allows
it to impersonate another domain in io_uring operations.

The io_uring { sqpoll } permission restricts which domains can create
asynchronous io_uring polling threads.  This is important from a
security perspective as operations queued by this asynchronous thread
inherit the credentials of the thread creator by default; if an
io_uring is shared across process/domain boundaries this could result
in one domain impersonating another.  Controlling the creation of
sqpoll threads, and the sharing of io_urings across processes, allow
policy authors to restrict the ability of one domain to impersonate
another via io_uring.

As a quick summary, this patch adds a new object class with two
permissions:

 io_uring { override_creds sqpoll }

These permissions can be seen in the two simple policy statements
below:

  allow domA_t domB_t : io_uring { override_creds };
  allow domA_t self : io_uring { sqpoll };
