Smack: adds smackfs/ptrace interface

This allows to limit ptrace beyond the regular smack access rules.
It adds a smackfs/ptrace interface that allows smack to be configured
to require equal smack labels for PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH access.
See the changes in Documentation/security/Smack.txt below for details.

these capabilities are effective at for processes with any

file or cleared by writing "-" to the file.
ptrace
This is used to define the current ptrace policy
0 - default: this is the policy that relies on smack access rules.
For the PTRACE_READ a subject needs to have a read access on
object. For the PTRACE_ATTACH a read-write access is required.
1 - exact: this is the policy that limits PTRACE_ATTACH. Attach is
only allowed when subject's and object's labels are equal.
PTRACE_READ is not affected. Can be overriden with CAP_SYS_PTRACE.
2 - draconian: this policy behaves like the 'exact' above with an
exception that it can't be overriden with CAP_SYS_PTRACE.
revoke-subject
Writing a Smack label here sets the access to '-' for all access
rules with that subject label.
