Hi,

I would like to update the AppArmor profile for tcpdump in bullseye to
match the one in bookworm; the changes don't really qualify for a stable
update per se, but they are trivial and would be important
quality-of-life improvements for users who are not knowledgeable about
AppArmor and don't understand why they get -EPERM in some cases.

The update would fix the following bugs (both "normal"):
* "AppArmor grants access to *.pcap but not *.cap"
https://bugs.debian.org/989433
* "apparmor profile prevents -C -W"
https://bugs.debian.org/1010688

Full debdiff is attached.

Thanks.

Control: tags -1 + confirmed

Please go ahead, thanks.

Regards,

Adam
