Add the support to have the cache be able to search multiple locations
so that the policy cache can be split into multiple locations and
that there can be a local cache that can override preshipped caches.

Currently the cache file has its mtime set at creation time, but this
can lead to cache issues when a policy file is updated separately from
the cache. This makes it possible for an update to ship a policy file
that is newer than the what the cache file was generated from, but
result in a cache hit because the cache file was local compiled after
the policy file was package into an update (this requires the update
to set the mtime of the file when locally installed to the mtime of
the file in its update archive but this is commonly done, especially
in image based updates).

This may be useful for something like an init daemon that simply wants
to load all cached binaries without worrying about any sort of policy
compilation.

This function allows for a policy cache to be removed without having a
previously instatiated aa_policy_cache object. It simply works off of a
path.

This API has the same look-and-feel of the previous aa_features API.
The cache setup code was heavily dependent on globals set by CLI
options. Options such as "skip the read cache", or "skip the write
cache", or "don't clear the cache if it isn't valid", won't be useful
for all aa_policy_cache API users so some of that logic was lifted out
of the API. The constructor function still provides a bool parameter
that specifies if the cache should be created or not.
If the policy cache is invalid (currently meaning that the cache
features file doesn't match the kernel features file), then a new
aa_policy_cache object is still created but a call to
aa_policy_cache_is_valid() will return false. The caller can then decide
what to do (create a new valid cache, stop, etc.)

The aa_features_new_*() functions create an aa_features object. They can
be thought of as the constructor of aa_features objects. A number of
constructors are available depending on whether the features are coming
from a file in the policy cache, a string specified on the command line,
or from apparmorfs.
The aa_features_ref() and aa_features_unref() functions are used to grab
and give up references to an aa_features. When the ref count hits zero,
all allocated memory is freed. Like with free(), aa_features_unref() can
be called with a NULL pointer for convenience.
Pre-processor macros are hidden behind functions so that they don't
become part of our ABI when we move this code into libapparmor later on.
A temporary convenience function, aa_features_get_string(), is provided
while code that uses aa_features is migrated from expecting raw features
string access to something more abstract. The function will be removed
in an upcoming patch.

Require the caller of setup_cache() to pass in a valid cache location
string. This removes the use of the basedir global from the
policy_cache.c file.
Additionally, it is no longer necessary to return the "cache dir" path
from setup_cache() since it will always be the same as the input path.
The return value is changed to an int so an error code can be returned
instead of using exit().

Modify setup_cache() to accept the user-supplied cacheloc and return the
validated or created cache directory. The caller must then track that
variable and pass it into any parser/policy_cache.c functions that need
it.
The main reason for this change is that the cache location and the cache
directory will soon be two different paths. The cache location will
typically be the parent of the cache directory.
