On bookworm, AppArmor failed to start inside the container, which can be
seen at startup of the dev-container:
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/systemd-firstboot.service → /dev/null.

When checking "aa-status", an error was printed that the filesystem was
not mounted:
aa-status
apparmor filesystem is not mounted.
apparmor module is loaded.
Checking if "local-fs.target" was loaded, that seemed to be the case;
systemctl status local-fs.target
● local-fs.target - Local File Systems
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/local-fs.target; static)
Active: active since Mon 2023-11-27 10:48:38 UTC; 18s ago

However, **on the host**, "/sys/kernel/security" has a mount, which was not
present inside the container:
mount | grep securityfs
securityfs on /sys/kernel/security type securityfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime)
Interestingly, on `debian:bullseye`, this was not the case either; no
`securityfs` mount was present inside the container, and apparmor actually
failed to start, but succeeded silently:
mount | grep securityfs
systemctl start apparmor
systemctl status apparmor
● apparmor.service - Load AppArmor profiles
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/apparmor.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

Nov 27 11:59:09 9519f89cade1 apparmor.systemd[43]: Not starting AppArmor in container
Same, using the `/etc/init.d/apparmor` script:
/etc/init.d/apparmor start
Starting apparmor (via systemctl): apparmor.service.
echo $?
0
And apparmor was not actually active:
aa-status
apparmor module is loaded.
apparmor filesystem is not mounted.
aa-enabled
Maybe - policy interface not available.
After further investigating, I found that the non-systemd dind script
had a mount for AppArmor, which was added in 31638ab2ad
The systemd variant was missing this mount, which may have gone unnoticed
because `debian:bullseye` was silently ignoring this when starting the
apparmor service.
