Andrea Bolognani d622ca04f6 apparmor: Don't check for existence of templates upfront
Currently, if either template is missing AppArmor support is
completely disabled. This means that uninstalling the LXC
driver from a system results in QEMU domains being started
without AppArmor confinement, which obviously doesn't make any
sense.

The problematic scenario was impossible to hit in Debian until
very recently, because all AppArmor files were shipped as part
of the same package; now that the Debian package is much closer
to the Fedora one, and specifically ships the AppArmor files
together with the corresponding driver, it becomes trivial to
trigger it.

Drop the checks entirely. virt-aa-helper, which is responsible
for creating the per-domain profiles starting from the
driver-specific template, already fails if the latter is not
present, so they were always redundant.

==============================
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:
