The aim of virSecurity rule is to discourage from using plain
virSecurityManager*() APIs within QEMU driver in favor of their
qemuSecurity*() counterparts. The reason is simple: namespaces;
virSecurityManager*() needs additional
virSecurityManagerTransactionCommit() call to enter given
namespace and do its work from there. And that's exactly what
those qemuSecurity*() wrappers do.

To help us ensure correctness (from this POV), we have a
syntax-check rule that forbids any occurrence of
"virSecurityManager" string under src/qemu/ (except for
qemu_security of course).

But with if we want to remove virSecurityManagerPtr type, then we
have to allow "virSecurityManager *". Therefore, change the rule
so that no call of a function with "virSecurityManager" prefix is
allowed. And also change the name to better reflect what is going
on.
