Do not remove the runtime directory /run/setrans/, which is the parent
for the security context translation socket .setrans-unix, when the
service is stopped, so the path can not be taken over by a foreign
program, which could lead to a compromise of the context translation of
libselinux.

I lost Jim's Acked-by mail but according to
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAP+JOzSvvg_2pZ6aeLGs9Oqh2nK0zpBGAURwbofh9DSAT39iVw@mail.gmail.com/
it was acked and it's merged now.

Thanks.
