With the far reaching discussion about what format would be
acceptable in mind I went with Simon McVittie's suggestion.
Also note that AppArmor includes newline in attr/current,
and this way we can preserve the existing value.
It's compatible with /proc/.../cmdline and easily keesized:

	cat /proc/self/attr/context | tr '\0' '\n'
