[apparmor] Proposal for a new AppArmor logo

[Noah Davis]

Unless you're shipping an official GUI application, it should really
be up to application developers and icon theme authors what the
functional icons look like. The point of this logo is to give artists
a common starting point that can be adapted to their needs. When users
see the shield with the mirrored 'A's, they should hopefully think
"Ah, that must be AppArmor!" instead of having to wonder what some
generic looking lock or shield icon means. Of course, it will likely
take a while before this logo catches on and it might never if it
isn't prominently displayed when people look for AppArmor on the
internet.
