Title:
  Update apparmor python utils to 2.9.2 version in trusty

Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [impact]

  Leading up to the release of 14.04, we decided to pull in a pre-release
  version of the python utils, because we did not want to continue
  supporting the out of date perl tools for the 5 years of the 14.04
  release support lifetime. There were a number of issues with the
  python tools that prevent users from using them effectively that
  have subsequently been addressed by upstream releases, as well as
  the addition of a significant number of tests.

  Specific bugs that should be addressed by this include:
  bug 1294797: aa-genprof traceback with apparmor 2.8.95
  bug 1319829: aa-genprof will crash when selecting scan 
  bug 1317176: aa-logprof attempts to read program binary instead of profile
  bug 1324154: aa-logprof is trying to process a binary instead of the profile
  bug 1310598: AppArmor python tools fail to parse mounts with UTF-8 non-ascii characters

  [steps to reproduce]

  1) attempt to use the aa-genprof/aa-logprof to generate or update
  policy

  [regression potential]

  It's possible that the simple management tools, aa-enforce,
  aa-complain, and aa-disable could be broken by this
  large update. However, the test-apparmor.py script from
  lp:qa-regression-testing attempts to exercise those scripts
  to ensure they still function. Regressions could be introduced
  in aa-genprof and aa-logprof, but they would need to be pretty
  substantial to outweigh the improvement in quality that the 2.9.2
  tools represent. Furthermore, a number of testcases have been added
  (and again are driven by lp:qa-regression-testing) to try to prevent
  the introduction of regressions.
