Instead of having statsd linking the perfetto client library
and talk directly to its socket, we let just statsd exec()
the /system/bin/perfetto cmdline client.
There are two reasons for this:
1) Simplify the interaction between statsd and perfetto, reduce
dependencies, binary size bloat and isolate faults.
2) The cmdline client also takes care of handing the trace to
Dropbox. This allows to expose the binder interaction surface
to the short-lived cmdline client and avoid to grant binder
access to the perfetto traced daemon.
This cmdline client will be used by:
- statsd
- the shell user (for our UI and Studio)

Add a label to /proc/config.gz, so we can distinguish this file from
other /proc files in security policy.
For now, only init is allowed read access. All others are denied.
TODO: clarify exactly who needs access. Further access will be granted
in a future commit.

Test: policy compiles and no device boot problems.

In order to support platform changes without simultaneous updates from
non-platform components, the platform and non-platform policies must be
split. In order to provide a guarantee that policy written for
non-platform objects continues to provide the same access, all types
exposed to non-platform policy are versioned by converting them and the
policy using them into attributes.
This change performs that split, the subsequent versioning and also
generates a mapping file to glue the different policy components
together.
Test: Device boots and runs.
