The netutils_wrapper is a process used by vendor code to update the
iptable rules on devices. When it update the rules for a specific chain.
The iptable module will reload the whole chain with the new rule. So
even the netutils_wrapper do not need to add any rules related to xt_bpf
module, it will still reloading the existing iptables rules about xt_bpf
module and need pass through the selinux check again when the rules are
reloading. So we have to grant it the permission to reuse the pinned
program in fs_bpf when it modifies the corresponding iptables chain so
the vendor module will not crash anymore.
Test: device boot and no more denials from netutils_wrapper

To better record the network traffic stats for each network interface.
We use xt_bpf netfilter module to do the iface stats accounting instead
of the cgroup bpf filter we currently use for per uid stats accounting.
The xt_bpf module will take pinned eBPF program as iptables rule and run
the program when packet pass through the netfilter hook. To setup the
iptables rules. netd need to be able to access bpf filesystem and run the
bpf program at boot time. The program used will still be created and
pinned by the bpfloader process.
Test: With selinux enforced, run "iptables -L -t raw" should show the
xt_bpf related rule present in bw_raw_PREROUTING chain.

With the new patches backported to 4.9 kernels, the bpf file system now
take the same file open flag as bpf_obj_get. So system server now need
read permission only for both bpf map and fs_bpf since we do not need
system server to edit the map. Also, the netd will always pass stdin
stdout fd to the process forked by it and do allow it will cause the
fork and execev fail. We just allow it pass the fd to bpfloader for now
until we have a better option.
Test: bpfloader start successful on devices with 4.9 kernel.

Add a new set of sepolicy for the process that only netd use to load
and run ebpf programs. It is the only process that can load eBPF
programs into the kernel and is only used to do that. Add some
neverallow rules regarding which processes have access to bpf objects.
Test: program successfully loaded and pinned at sys/fs/bpf after device
boot. No selinux violation for bpfloader
