This allows for dontauditing very specific ioctls e.g. TCGETS without
dontauditing every ioctl or granting additional permissions.

Now either an allowx, dontauditx or auditallowx rules enables checking
for extended permissions.

v2: dropped the precedence change, I will make my case for that seperately.

I feel that the Android folks have had plenty of time to comment on
this, and they haven't, so I'm going to go ahead and merge this since
it seems to make sense.  Thanks for your patience Jonathan.

I think The SELinux Notebook probably needs an update with respect to
this patch, mentioning that in Linux v5.10 the xperms auditing
behavior changed.  Can you submit a patch for that as well?
