[Bug 1197124] Re: SDK applications require access to /dev/log_*
These accesses have been denied for months without any consequence. I
think for now marking the non-apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu tasks as "Won't
Fix" is fine. We can re-open if these denials cause problems.

Bug description:
Not sure where this bug should be, but Ubuntu SDK applications need
write access to various /dev/log_* files. It seems rather odd that,
for example, the ubuntu-calculator-app needs the following policy:
/dev/log_main w,
/dev/log_radio w,
/dev/log_events w,
/dev/log_system w,
These rules are too lenient and presumably any app could spam/attack
the system via these device files.
