[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/2] package/libsemanage: add option to manually define policy version

[aduskett at gmail.com]

From: Adam Duskett <Aduskett at gmail.com>

The semodule package derives the maximum SELinux policy version from
the libsemanage library.

By default, libsemanage returns the highest supported policy version that
libsepol supports found in include/sepol/policydb/policydb.h and not from the
Kernel. However, if the maximum supported SELinux policy version supported by
the Kernel is lower than the maximum supported policy version from libsemanage,
if a user attempts to build a policy using the semodule program, semodule fails
when creating a policy with the error:
policydb version X does not match my version range 15-X.

This default value may be overwrriten by setting the policy-version = line in
/etc/semanage/semanage.conf.

Create an option that allows a user to overwrite the default policy version to
ensure that semodule works on older kernels.
