Dump*() methods can take quite some time due to the amount of data to serialize, so they can potentially stall the manager. Make them privileged, as they are debugging tools anyway. Use a new 'dump' capability for polkit, and the 'reload' capability for SELinux, as that's also non-destructive but slow. If the caller is not privileged, allow it but rate limited to 10 calls every 10 minutes.
