Title:
  [FFe] wrap swtpm in an apparmor profile

Status in libvirt package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in swtpm package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Please accept the swtpm apparmor profile as a Jammy FFe.

  [Rationale]

  We would like to MIR swtpm in the near future, and adding in the
  apparmor profile is needed for this to happen for security.

  [Regression Potential]

  If the apparmor profile is missing certain exceptions then some users
  may encounter permission denied errors with their setup.

  If users encounter errors with this, it will be limited to the
  packages built with src:swtpm as the packages have no reverse
  dependencies in the archive.

  swtpm is not seeded.

  [Tests]


  [Original Description]

  This is a spin off from MIR bug 1948748 for swtpm.

  As we can see in bug 1859506 it currently seems to run in guest-
  context which is good as that is already rather reduced and safer than
  e.g. the libvirt daemon.

  But still we should evaluate adding a further reduced profile just for
  swtpm and have it transition there.
