Major Hayden 98fdd520a0 Disable DAC change auditing
This patch disables all of the discretionary access control (DAC)
auditing in auditd. This should reduce the volume of logs created
during deployments and during OpenStack CI jobs.

The patch also corrects an incorrect key in the audit logs for
V-38568.

All of the discretionary access control (DAC) auditing is now disabled by
default. This reduces the amount of logs generated during deployments and
minor upgrades. The following variables are now set to ``no``:
.. code-block:: yaml
security_audit_DAC_chmod: no
security_audit_DAC_chown: no
security_audit_DAC_lchown: no
security_audit_DAC_fchmod: no
security_audit_DAC_fchmodat: no
security_audit_DAC_fchown: no
security_audit_DAC_fchownat: no
security_audit_DAC_fremovexattr: no
security_audit_DAC_lremovexattr: no
security_audit_DAC_fsetxattr: no
security_audit_DAC_lsetxattr: no
security_audit_DAC_setxattr: no
fixes:
- The auditd rules for auditing V-38568 (filesystem mounts) were incorrectly
labeled in the auditd logs with the key of ``export-V-38568``. They are
now correctly logged with the key ``filesystem_mount-V-38568``.
