We have a new MP that fixes things for real in Focal.

The former SRUs already have been set to verification-failed and can be
cancelled from -proposed if it helps to clear up things.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * rsyslog ships with a (Default disable) apparmor profile.
   * Security sensitive users are in general encouraged to enable such
     profiles but unfortunately due to slightly new behavior of the program
     the profile prevents its usage.
   * Allow the program to map/read its binary to get this working again

  [Test Case]

  1) Create a 'eoan' container called rs1 here:
    lxc launch ubuntu-daily:e rs1
  2) Enter the container
    lxc shell rs1
  3) Enable apparmor profile
    rm /etc/apparmor.d/disable/usr.sbin.rsyslogd
    apparmor_parser -r -T -W /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.rsyslogd
    systemctl restart rsyslog
  4) notice rsyslog failed to start
    systemctl status rsyslog

  [Regression Potential]

   * This is just opening up the apparmor profile a bit. Therefore the only
     regression it could cause IMHO is a security issue. But then what it
     actually allows is reading (not writing!) its own binary which should
     be very safe.
   * Thinking further it came to my mind that package updates (independent 
     to the change) might restart services and that means if there is any 
     issue e.g. in a local config that worked but now fails (not by this 
     change but in general) then the upgrade will not cause, but trigger 
     this. This is a general regression risk for any upload, but in this 
     case worth to mention as it is about log handling - which if broken - 
     makes large scale systems hard to debug.

  [Other Info]

   * n/a

  Issue description:

  Enabling the rsyslog (disabled by default) Apparmor profile causes
  rsyslog to fail to start when running *inside a container*.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1) Create a 'eoan' container called rs1 here:
    lxc launch ubuntu-daily:e rs1
  2) Enter the container
    lxc shell rs1
  3) Enable apparmor profile
    rm /etc/apparmor.d/disable/usr.sbin.rsyslogd
    apparmor_parser -r -T -W /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.rsyslogd
    systemctl restart rsyslog
  4) notice rsyslog failed to start
    systemctl status rsyslog

  Workaround:

    echo '  /usr/sbin/rsyslogd mr,' >> /etc/apparmor.d/local/usr.sbin.rsyslogd
    apparmor_parser -r -T -W /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.rsyslogd
    systemctl restart rsyslog
