I'd expect this simply expanding the notion of process (currenlty auid, uid,
gid, etc.) to include label.  Hmm, I'd imagine this should include
capabilities as well.  Similarly for inode, socket, ipc...

All current audit records (i.e. CAPP style) which require logging
subject/object, now simply have expanded notion of subject/object
(i.e. relevant labels).  Certainly, this includes those generated from the
audit subsystem, which simply needs to query security module to get label.
I suppose one question is what format?  Standard security_getprocattr
type hook to just get text is simplest.
