Public bug reported:

The qemu-bridge-helper binary provided in qemu-system-common has at
least two issues:

1. it's not setuid root
2. it doesn't have proper apparmor profile

Trying to use the bridge helper as a regular user will fail unless I set
the setuid bit after every package upgrade and tear down the apparmor
profiles. I'm probably the only one using it but it would be nice if
worked since it's part of the package.

The setuid bit is probably an upstream issue from Debian but the
apparmor issue is likely Ubuntu specific.

I'm on Ubuntu 18.04 and the qemu packages are 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu4.
