So I confirmed that using your test program, I get an avc denial for
create on alg_socket unless I allow that permission to the domain
running the program, as expected.  So no surprises there.  I'll defer
putting together a real patch for selinux-testsuite until it is clear
that the kernel patch is going to be accepted, and regardless, we'll
have to work through how to make it conditional on all the right factors
(kernel version, policy defines the capability and the new socket
classes or we add them temporarily for the tests via the CIL policy module).
