Jim Fehlig 64ae7635e6 Apparmor: Allow reading /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf
I noticed the following denial when running confined VMs with the QEMU
driver

type=AVC msg=audit(1623865089.263:865): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" \
profile="virt-aa-helper" name="/etc/ssl/openssl.cnf" pid=12503 \
comm="virt-aa-helper" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=0 ouid=0

Allow reading the file by including the openssl abstraction in the
virt-aa-helper profile.

==============================
Libvirt API for virtualization
==============================

Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management
daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the
API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other
languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as
mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.

Further information about the libvirt project can be found on the
website:

https://libvirt.org
