Fix TBROK on systems which does not have /var/log/messages
(any modern distro is using systemd) not auditd installed:

    ima_violations 1 TBROK: log /var/log/messages does not exist (bug in detection?)

Instead TCONF with more meaningful message:

    ima_violations 1 TCONF: log file not found, install auditd

Fixes: https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/issues/372

Hi Mimi, all,

or should we drop /var/log/messages support entirely? I remember some
old systems had problem (not sure if bug in old kernel or
/var/log/messages was not somehow reliable).

https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/issues/372

Kind regards,
Petr
