Ryan Savitski ffa0dd93f3 perf_event: rules for system and simpleperf domain
This patch adds the necessary rules to support the existing usage of
perf_event_open by the system partition, which almost exclusively
concerns the simpleperf profiler. A new domain is introduced for some
(but not all) executions of the system image simpleperf. The following
configurations are supported:
* shell -> shell process (no domain transition)
* shell -> debuggable app (through shell -> runas -> runas_app)
* shell -> profileable app (through shell -> simpleperf_app_runner ->
                            untrusted_app -> simpleperf)
* debuggable/profile app -> self (through untrusted_app -> simpleperf)

simpleperf_app_runner still enters the untrusted_app domain immediately
before exec to properly inherit the categories related to MLS. My
understanding is that a direct transition would require modifying
external/selinux and seapp_contexts as with "fromRunAs", which seems
unnecessarily complex for this case.

runas_app can still run side-loaded binaries and use perf_event_open,
but it checks that the target app is exactly "debuggable"
(profileability is insufficient).

system-wide profiling is effectively constrained to "su" on debug
builds.

See go/perf-event-open-security for a more detailed explanation of the
scenarios covered here.
