[Bug 2104929] [NEW] Add autopkgtest for apparmor

[Andreas Hasenack]

Public bug reported:

We recently started getting more apparmor-related bugs in rsyslog. Most
are just about the noise the DENIED messages produce in the logs, with
one or two there something was actually preventing rsyslog from working
with a specific module.

There are some apparmor tests, but they are about the snippet loading
mechanism we have in the package, and not about the rules themselves.
Specifically, we have nothing that looks for the harmless, but noisy,
DENIED messages in the logs.

I propose that we should have something for each autopkgtest run, for
each test, that will fail the test if even a single DENIED messages
coming from an rsyslog apparmor profile appears in the logs.

** Affects: rsyslog (Ubuntu)
