Moving apply_and_clear_deny() before the first minimization pass, which
was necessary to propperly support building accept information for
older none extended permission dfas, allows us to also get rid of doing a
second minimization pass if we want to force clearing explicit deny
info from extended permission tables.

speedup and reduce memory usage of dfa generation
A variety of changes to improve dfa generation
- By switching to Nodevec instead of Node sets we can reduce memory usage slightly and reduce code
- By using charsets for chars we reduce code and increase chances of node merging/reduction which reduces memory usage slightly
- By merging charsets we reduce the number of nodes

In preparation for more flags (not all of the backend dfa based),
rework the optimization and dump flag handling which has been exclusively
around the dfa up to this point.
- split dfa control and dump flags into separate fields. This gives more
room for new flags in the existing DFA set
- rename DFA_DUMP, and DFA_CONTROL to CONTROL_DFA and DUMP_DFA as
this will provide more uniform naming for none dfa flags
- group dump and control flags into a structure so they can be passed
together.

The inverse character set lists the characters it doesn't match. If
the inverse character set contains an oob then that is NOT considered
a match. So length should be one.
However because of oobs are handle not containing an oob doesn't mean
there is a match either. Currently the only way to match an oob is
via a positive express (no inverse matches are possible).

The dynamic_cast operator is slow as it needs to look at RTTI
information and even does some string comparisons, especially in deep
hierarchies like the one for Node. Profiling with callgrind showed
that dynamic_cast can eat a huge portion of the running time, as it
takes most of the time that is spent in the simplify_tree()
function. For some complex profiles, the number of calls to
dynamic_cast can be in the range of millions.
This commit replaces the use of dynamic_cast in the Node hierarchy
with a method called is_type(), which returns true if the pointer can
be casted to the specified type. It works by looking at a Node object
field that is an integer with bits set for each type up in the
hierarchy. Therefore, dynamic_cast is replaced by a simple bits
operation.
This change can reduce the compilation times for some profiles more
that 50%, especially in arm/arm64 arch. This opens the door to maybe
avoid "-O no-expr-simplify" in the snapd daemon, as now that option
would make the compilation slower in almost all cases.
This is the example profile used in some of my tests, with this change
the run-time is around 1/3 of what it was before on an x86 laptop:

xattrs can contain NULL characters in their values which means we can
not user regular NULL transitions to separate values. To fix this
use out of band transition instead.
Signed-off-by: John Johansen <john.johansen@canonical.com>
Currently the NULL character is used as an out of band transition
for string/path elements. This works for them as the NULL character
is not valid for this data. However this does not work for binary
data that can contain a NULL character.
So far we have only dealt with fixed length fields of binary data
making the NULL separator either unnecessary.
However binary data like in the xattr match and mount data field are
variable length and can contain NULL characters. To deal with this
add the ability to specify out of band transitions, that can only
be triggered by code not input data.
The out of band transition can be used to separate variable length
data fields just as the NULL transition has been used to separate
variable length strings.
In the compressed hfa out of band transitions are expressed as a
negative offset from the states base. This leaves us room to expand
the character match range in the future if desired and on average
makes the range between the out of band transition and the input
transitions smaller than would be had if the out of band transition
had been stored after the valid input transitions.
Out of band transitions in the dfa will not break old kernels
that don't know about them, but they won't be able to trigger
the out of band transition match. So they should not be used unless
the kernel indicates that it supports them.
It should be noted that this patch only adds support for a single
out of band transition. If multiple out of band transitions are
required. It is trivial to extend.
- Add a tag indicating support in the kernel
- add a oob max range field to the dfa header so the kernel knows
what the max range that needs verifying is.
- extend oob generation fns to generate oob based on value instead
of a fixed -1.

The length of a xmatch is used to prioritize multiple profiles that
match the same path, with the intent that the more specific match wins.
Currently, the length of a xmatch is computed by the position of the
first regex character.
While trying to work around issues with no_new_privs by combining
profiles, we noticed that the xmatch length computation doesn't work as
expected for multiple regexs. Consider the following two profiles:
profile all /** { }
profile bins /{,usr/,usr/local/}bin/** { }
xmatch_len is currently computed as "1" for both profiles, even though
"bins" is clearly more specific.
When determining the length of a regex, compute the smallest possible
match and use that for xmatch priority instead of the position of the
first regex character.

This is patch tries to reduce the number of dynamic_cast<>s needed
during normalization by pushing the operations of normalize_tree()
into the expr-tree classes themselves rather than perform it as
an external function. This eliminates the need for dynamic_cast<>
checks on the current object under inspection and reduces the number
of checks needing to be performed on child Nodes as well.
In non-strict benchmarking, doing the dynamic_cast<> reduction
for just the tree normalization operation resulted in a ~10-15%
improvement in overall time on a couple of different hosts (amd64,
armel), as measured against apparmor_parser -Q. Valgrind's callgrind
tool indicated a reduction in the number of calls to dynamic_cast<>
on the tst/simple_tests/vars/dbus_vars_9.sd test profile from ~19
million calls to ~12 million.
In comparisons with dumped expr trees over both the entire
tst/simple_tests/ tree and from 1000 randomly generated profiles via
stress.rb, the generated trees were identical.

non-accepting, and have the proto-state use them.
To reduce memory overhead each set gains its own "cache" that make sure
there is only a single instance of each NodeSet generated. And since
we have a cache abstraction, move relavent stats into it.
Also refactor code slightly to make caches and work_queue etc, DFA member
variables instead of passing them as parameters.
The split + caching results in a small reduction in memory use as the
cost of ProtoState + Caching is less than the redundancy that is eliminated.
However this results in a small decrease in performance.
