I admit to being at least as network ignorant as the next guy, but I'm
totally not understanding why the type of the socket makes sense.  We
have two ends of this unix domain socket:

svirt_t:c0:c1 and libvirtd_t:s0-s15:c0-c1023

The label on the socket, and thus the label that both ends are going to
have to check against is actually some amalgamation of the context on
both ends.  In fact the socket gets the type of svirt_t and the level of
s0-s15:c0-c1023, svirt_t:c0-s15:c0-c1023.  Now we need to allow both:

svirt_t:s0:c1 -> svirt_t:s0-s15:c0-c1023
libvirtd_t:s0-s15:c0-c1023 -> sivrt_t:s0-s15:c0-c1023

to use this screwy label that I don't understand at all.  I guess I just
don't like the fact that somehow the MLS portion is a magic different
class citizen.  It seems to me that the 'correct' checks on a unix
domain socket (where we really know this info) would be different
depending on the direction.  We should need to allow

svirt_t:s0:c1 -> libvirtd_t:s0-s15:c0-c1023
libvirtd_t:s0-s15:c0-c1023 -> svirt_t:s0:c1

No more of this horrific magic derived other context.  Obviously I'm
networking clueless, but someone please explain me how this type makes
sense.....
