Ideally, public should only contain APIs (types / attributes) for
vendor. The other statements like allow/neverallow/typeattributes are
regarded as implementation detail for platform and should be in private.

Test: m selinux_policy
Test: diff <(git diff --staged | grep "^-" | cut -b2- | sort) \
<(git diff --staged | grep "^+" | cut -b2- | sort)
Test: remove comments on plat_sepolicy.cil, replace base_typeattr_*
to base_typeattr and then compare old and new plat_sepolicy.cil

Now that FDE (Full Disk Encryption) is no longer supported, the SELinux
policy doesn't need to support it. Remove two rules that are no longer
needed. Also update some comments that implied that other rules were
needed only because of FDE support, when actually they are still needed
for other reasons. Finally, fix some outdated documentation links.

These denials occur on boot when android_get_control_file also
changes from readlink() to realpath(), because realpath() will
lstat() the given path.
Some other domains (fastbootd, update_engine, etc.) also uses
libcutils to write to kernel log, where android_get_control_file()
is invoked, hence getattr is added to them as well.

system_file_type is a new attribute used to identify files which exist
on the /system partition. It's useful for allow rules in init, which are
based off of a blacklist of writable files. Additionally, it's useful
for constructing neverallow rules to prevent regressions.
Additionally, add commented out tests which enforce that all files on
the /system partition have the system_file_type attribute. These tests
will be uncommented in a future change after all the device-specific
policies are cleaned up.
Test: Device boots and no obvious problems.

Init is no longer calling vdc with logwrapper, so it must take care of
logging to kmsg directly.

Divide policy into public and private components. This is the first
step in splitting the policy creation for platform and non-platform
policies. The policy in the public directory will be exported for use
in non-platform policy creation. Backwards compatibility with it will
be achieved by converting the exported policy into attribute-based
policy when included as part of the non-platform policy and a mapping
file will be maintained to be included with the platform policy that
maps exported attributes of previous versions to the current platform
version.
Eventually we would like to create a clear interface between the
platform and non-platform device components so that the exported policy,
and the need for attributes is minimal. For now, almost all types and
avrules are left in public.
Test: Tested by building policy and running on device.
