One more problem with genhomedircon replacement.

Shadow-utils and perhaps others execute genhomedircon when adding users
or modifying the homedir.  They are blowing up because the executable
genhomedircon no longer exists.  I would like to just put out a script
that would call semanage to tell it to run the semanage_genhomedircon().

I also think it is useful to have the ability to execute this without a
rebuild/reload of policy for when the admin executes vipw or any other
way of adding a user to the system

But there are no Python bindings and no way to call this via semodule.

I can call semanage -Bn, but this is slow and cumberson.


I looked into why semanage_genhomedircon is not in a python binding, but
it uses sepol_policydb_t * policydb, which we would need to build.

So what is the best way to do this?
