Title:
  ibus_bus_init does an unconditional call to chmod on
  $HOME/.config/ibus/bus

Status in ibus package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This was spotted by jdstrand when running the chromium snap, which
  recently enabled ibus support (https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/cant-use-
  input-method-in-snap-apps/4712/12):

  audit[16919]: AVC apparmor="DENIED" operation="chmod"
  profile="snap.chromium.chromium" name="/home/osomon/.config/ibus/bus/"
  pid=16919 comm="chromium-browse" requested_mask="w" denied_mask="w"
  fsuid=1000 ouid=1000

  The code that calls chmod is in ibus_bus_init:

    static void
    ibus_bus_init (IBusBus *bus)
    {
      gchar *path;
      […]
      path = g_path_get_dirname (ibus_get_socket_path ());
      g_mkdir_with_parents (path, 0700);
      g_chmod (path, 0700);
      […]
    }

  This could be avoided by checking first the file mode bits on that
  directory, and do the g_chmod call only if ≠ 0700.
