Directories for policy module packages

Now that RPM packages are starting to include policy module packages (my 
mod_fcgid package was approved for Extras recently: 
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/195666), it would be nice to have a standard 
place for the .pp files to be dropped, and for that directory to be 
owned by the selinux-policy package (so that all the packages don't need 
to own it themselves).

I propose the following:

/usr/share/selinux/packages
(container directory, separate from modules bundled with Core package)

/usr/share/selinux/packages/mls
(policy modules for use with the mls base policy)

/usr/share/selinux/packages/strict
(policy modules for use with the strict base policy)

/usr/share/selinux/packages/targeted
(policy modules for use with the targeted base policy)

/usr/share/selinux/packages/share
(policy modules that have no base-specific elements, and can be used 
with all base policies)

Paul.
