Hello intrigeri, this one is a bit involved.

As it is systemd's support for AppArmor is to issue a change_profile
call before executing a unit's executable. This requires the profile to
already be loaded, which currently means a pre-task that calls
apparmor_parser on the profile or waiting to run until after an apparmor
unit file completes loading all profiles.

The parser currently knows how to drive the cache, invalidate it if any
of the files involved in defining the profile are modified, etc. But
it'd be nice if this functionality were exposed via a library that
systemd could use so that it could compile (and cache) the policy if
needed, it could load a cached policy if one exists and isn't stale.

Since different tools own different AppArmor policies (init scripts own
/etc/apparmor.d/, snapd owns snapd policy, libvirt owns libvirt policy,
docker owns docker policy, etc) this may need some effort to determine
what we really want it to do.

I hope this helps. Thanks.
