[apparmor] [PATCH] apparmor: use zstd compression for profile data

[Jon Tourville]

zstd_compress_bound returns the worst case scenario so that the buffer will
be guaranteed to be large enough. I will look into reallocating the buffer
since the worst case could very well be larger than the original size.
Thanks,

Jon
