It should only really be available for debuggable apps, and only when they are actually being debugged.

This might need to wait until Android N for minijail. It would be a bit silly to integrate libseccomp as was done in older versions of CopperheadOS when the functionality is going to be in AOSP already.

It's now disabled by default for unprivileged users via Yama.
