selinux: add tracepoint on audited events

The audit data currently captures which process and which target
is responsible for a denial. There is no data on where exactly in the
process that call occurred. Debugging can be made easier by being able to
reconstruct the unified kernel and userland stack traces [1]. Add a
tracepoint on the SELinux denials which can then be used by userland
(i.e. perf).

Although this patch could manually be added by each OS developer to
trouble shoot a denial, adding it to the kernel streamlines the
developers workflow.

It is possible to use perf for monitoring the event:
  # perf record -e avc:selinux_audited -g -a
  ^C
  # perf report -g
  [...]
      6.40%     6.40%  audited=800000 tclass=4

                  |          binder_ioctl
                  |          binder_set_nice
                  |          can_nice
                  |          capable
                  |          security_capable
                  |          cred_has_capability.isra.0
                  |          slow_avc_audit
                  |          common_lsm_audit
                  |          avc_audit_post_callback
                  |          avc_audit_post_callback
                  |

It is also possible to use the ftrace interface:
  # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/avc/selinux_audited/enable
  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
  tracer: nop
  entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 1/1   #P:8
  [...]
  dmesg-3624  [001] 13072.325358: selinux_denied: audited=800000 tclass=4

The tclass value can be mapped to a class by searching
security/selinux/flask.h. The audited value is a bit field of the
permissions described in security/selinux/av_permissions.h for the
corresponding class.
