AppArmor: Allow apparmor to handle unaligned dfa tables

Browse source 
[ Upstream commit 64802f7312 ]

The dfa tables can originate from kernel or userspace and 8-byte alignment
isn't always guaranteed and as such may trigger unaligned memory accesses
on various architectures. Resulting in the following
