Until we have a proper trust-store implementation with snappy and on the desktop/ubuntu core we want pulseaudio to simply deny any audio recording request coming from an app shipped as part of a snap.

The implementation adds a module-snappy-policy module to pulseaudio which adds a hook for audio recording requests and checks on connection if the apparmor security label of the connecting peer starts with "snap." which will identify it as a snap application.

Pulseaudio with the patch is available as part of the landing request at https://requests.ci-train.ubuntu.com/#/ticket/1428
