I did not check in details why it needs that nowadays but this does not increase the attack surface significantly, so let's allow it and don't take the risk of breaking security critical stuff by denying it blindly. If someone does the research and shows that it's safe to deny such access, then we can do so.
It's been broken since years and shipped in complain mode since 26 months. It's now obvious that nobody cares enough about this profile to maintain it, so let's drop it to avoid polluting system logs with tons of AppArmor messages: with Linux 4.14, starting Tor Browser once triggers 27k+ such messages.
