policycoreutils: fixfiles: remove bad modes of "relabel" command
* `fixfiles -B relabel` or `fixfiles -C previouscontext relabel` would skip the code that handles e.g. `/var/tmp`, which would be run by `fixfiles relabel`. It would still remove all files in /tmp (subject to user confirmation). This is confusing, undocumented, and unlikely to be intentional. * `fixfiles relabel path1 path2` is the same, except it would only relabel the first path. * `fixfiles -R ... relabel` was equivalent to `fixfiles -R ... restore`, again contradicting the man page. Also `fixfiles onboot` would ignore paths, -C, or -R. fixfiles is mostly for users, where it should be acceptable to remove these non-sensical combinations. `fixfiles -C` is used in selinux-policy rpm install scripts. However I believe the rpms used `fixfiles -C previouscontext restore`, and did not either require user interaction or blow away /tmp without prompting. So they should still work fine. With these combinations removed, we can remove the `exit` calls which were seen in some of the (non-error) code paths in `restore()`. Signed-off-by: Alan Jenkins <alan.christopher.jenkins@gmail.com>

If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces. To install libsepol on macOS (mainly for policy analysis): cd libsepol; make DESTDIR=/usr/local PREFIX=/usr/local install This requires GNU coreutils (brew install coreutils).
