I can look at enabling it.  It's new in 5.3.5.  If enabled, can you test
and confirm it works?
Looks like something quite interesting.

Comments here in the Debian bug indicate that this requires at least 4.2
kernel.
For Xenial, this will be sufficient I suppose.

That looks like from the initial install;  You may need to reload the new
apparmor policy

apparmor_parser -r /etc/apparmor.d/usr.lib.ipsec.charon

And then you can restart it with:

systemctl restart strongswan

and check status

systemctl status strongswan

I'm not sure what ipsec statusall invokes to check status.

In an up-to-date Xenial VM, installing the current packages in the PPA, I
get the following:

# systemctl status strongswan
● strongswan.service - strongSwan IPsec services
