  autopkgtests fail after security fixes

Bug description:
  The following autopkgtests fail after the recent security fixes:

  log:FAIL: test_get_logind_session (__main__.T)
  log:FAIL: test_core_dump_packaged (__main__.T)
  log:FAIL: test_core_dump_unpackaged (__main__.T)
  log:FAIL: test_crash_setuid_drop (__main__.T)
  log:FAIL: test_crash_setuid_keep (__main__.T)
  log:FAIL: test_crash_setuid_nonwritable_cwd (__main__.T)
  log:FAIL: test_lock_symlink (__main__.T)

  test_get_logind_session is a test failing to keep up with an API
  change. test_core_dump_* is failures to remove partly written core
  files. Both of these are easy fixes, I'll have a MP for them soon.

  test_crash_setuid_* are caused by the dropping of privileges when
  accessing the crashing process's /proc. They seem to be testing
  behaviour now explicitly forbidden by the fix to be honest!

  test_lock_symlink fails because the lock file is now always in
  /var/lock/apport/ and not in $APPORT_REPORT_DIR. I guess we could
  update the test, but is it really worth it after the fix?
