Public bug reported:

There is an AppArmor regression in current noble. In cockpit we recently
started to test on noble (to prevent the "major regressions after
release" fiasco from 23.10 again).

For some weird reason, rsyslog is installed *by default* [1] in the
cloud images. That is a rather pointless waste of CPU and disk space, as
it's an unnecessary running daemon and duplicates all the written logs.

But more specifically, we noticed [2] an AppArmor rejection. Reproducer
is simple:

    logger -p user.emerg --tag check-journal EMERGENCY_MESSAGE

this causes

    type=1400 audit(1710168739.345:108): apparmor="DENIED"
operation="open" class="file" profile="rsyslogd"
name="/run/systemd/sessions/" pid=714 comm=72733A6D61696E20513A526567
requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=102 ouid=0

Note that it doesn't actually fail, the "EMERGENCY_MESSAGE" does appear
in the journal and also in /var/log/syslog. But it's some noise that
triggers our (and presumbly other admin's) log detectors.
