    Split general policy into public and private components. · cc39f637
    dcashman authored
    Divide policy into public and private components.  This is the first
    step in splitting the policy creation for platform and non-platform
    policies.  The policy in the public directory will be exported for use
    in non-platform policy creation.  Backwards compatibility with it will
    be achieved by converting the exported policy into attribute-based
    policy when included as part of the non-platform policy and a mapping
    file will be maintained to be included with the platform policy that
    maps exported attributes of previous versions to the current platform
    version.
    
    Eventually we would like to create a clear interface between the
    platform and non-platform device components so that the exported policy,
    and the need for attributes is minimal.  For now, almost all types and
    avrules are left in public.
    
    Test: Tested by building policy and running on device.
