// necessary to have a NOP wrapper which is built for non-Linux platforms to
// allow code that links to this package not to differentiate its own methods
// for Linux and non-Linux platforms.
//
// SELinuxRunner wraps certain libcontainer SELinux calls. For more
// information, see:

// https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/blob/master/libcontainer/selinux/selinux.go

// NewSELinuxRunner returns a new SELinuxRunner appropriate for the platform.
// On Linux, all methods short-circuit and return NOP values if SELinux is
// disabled. On non-Linux platforms, a NOP implementation is returned.
