Commit c19395d72295f5e69275d98df5db22dfdf214b6c fixed some handling of unknown
classes/permissions, but missed the case where an unknown permission is loaded
and then subsequently logged, either via denial or auditallow. If a permission
set has some valid values mixed with unknown values, say `{ read write foo }`,
a check on `{ read write foo }` would fail to log the entire set.

To fix this, skip over the bad permissions/classes when expanding them to
strings. The unknowns should be logged during `selinux_set_mapping`, so
there is no need for further logging of the actual unknown permissions.

It seems like we have a similar pattern in print_access_vector(), avc_dump_av(); if security_av_perm_to_string() returns NULL, we break out of the loops and skip the remaining bits. We do however log the hex value of the any remaining bits set in the av, so we don't lose all information. I think we can still take this patch as is but was wondering whether the other cases ought to be similarly handled?
