    AppArmor: allow Firefox to access mountinfo.
    
    It's used in the GetDeviceName function (xpcom/io/nsLocalFileUnix.cpp), which is
    in turn used by nsLocalFile::GetDiskSpaceAvailable. With this in mind, it's not
    clear to me what the consequences of not letting Firefox access this information
    are. E.g. it may very well let the user start downloading a file that won't fit
    on disk.
    
    So, unless good reasons are provided for blocking access to this file, I'm
    allowing Firefox to read it.
