Subject: [PATCH 01/10] capability: introduce new capable flag CAP_OPT_NOAUDIT_ONDENY

Introduce a new capable flag, CAP_OPT_NOAUDIT_ONDENY, to not generate
an audit event if the requested capability is not granted.  This will be
used in a new capable_any() functionality to reduce the number of
necessary capable calls.

Handle the flag accordingly in AppArmor and SELinux.
