This enables adding a priority to a rules in policy, finishing out the
priority work done to plumb priority support through the internals in
the previous patch.
Rules have a default priority of 0. The priority prefix can be added
before the other currently support rule prefixes, ie.
[priority prefix][audit qualifier][rule mode][owner]
If present a numerical priority can be assigned to the rule, where the
greater the number the higher the priority. Eg.
priority=1 audit file r /etc/passwd,
priority=-1 deny file w /etc/**,
Rule priority allows the rule with the highest priority to completely
override lower priority rules where they overlap. Within a given
priority level rules will accumulate in standard apparmor fashion.
Eg. given
priority=1 w /*c,
priority=0 r /a*,
priority=-1 k /*b*,
/abc, /bc, /ac .. will have permissions of w
/ab, /abb, /aaa, .. will have permissions of r
/b, /bcb, /bab, .. will have permissions of k
User specified rule priorities are currently capped at the arbitrary
values of 1000, and -1000.
Notes:
* not all rule types support the priority prefix. Rukes like
- network
- capability
- rlimits need to be reworked
need to be reworked to properly preserve the policy rule structure.
* this patch does not support priority on rule blocks
* this patch does not support using a variable in the priority value.

The apparmor_parser allows you to add, replace, and remove AppArmor
policy through the use of command line options. The default is to add.
`apparmor_parser --help` shows what the command line options are.
