Bug description:
  SRU Justification

  1. impact of the bug is minimal for stable releases, since apport is
  disabled by default. However, being able to run 'ubuntu-bug', 'apport-
  bug' or 'apport-collect' is useful for developers trying to get more
  information from users.

  2. This has been addressed in the development branch

  3. Patch is very small. See comment #3.

  4. TEST CASE:
  $ sudo apport-bug apparmor --save /tmp/apport.txt

  Examine /tmp/apport.txt. It should have something like:
  ProcKernelCmdline: root=UUID=378db089-c0de-431c-b57d-9675fa5e6319 ro quiet 
splash

  5. The regression potential of the patch is very low, as it updates
  the apport hook which is not enabled by default in the stable
  releases.

  Initial report

  21:34 < kees>         self['ProcCmdline'] = _read_file('/proc/' + pid + 
'/cmdline').rstrip('\0')
  21:34 < kees> vs
  21:34 < kees> ./apport/hookutils.py:    attach_file(report, '/proc/cmdline', 
'ProcCmdLine')

  The hardware hook is destroying the /proc/$pid/cmdline information.
