491e4da372 init: Add an selinux transition for snapuserd.
With compressed VAB updates, it is not possible to mount /system without
first running snapuserd, which is the userspace component to the dm-user
kernel module. This poses a problem because as soon as selinux
enforcement is enabled, snapuserd (running in a kernel context) does not
have access to read and decompress the underlying system partition.

To account for this, we split SelinuxInitialize into multiple steps:

First, sepolicy is read into an in-memory string.

Second, the device-mapper tables for all snapshots are rebuilt. This
flushes any pending reads and creates new dm-user devices. The original
kernel-privileged snapuserd is then killed.

Third, sepolicy is loaded from the in-memory string.

Fourth, we re-launch snapuserd and connect it to the newly created
dm-user devices. As part of this step we restorecon device-mapper
devices and /dev/block/by-name/super, since the new snapuserd is in a
limited context.

Finally, we set enforcing mode.

This sequence ensures that snapuserd has appropriate privileges with a
minimal number of permissive audits.
