This patch:

* adds a get_ssid ACM command that allows privileged domains to retrieve
types for either a given ssid reference or a given domain id (of a running
domain); this command can be used to extend access control into device
domains, e.g., to control network traffic currently moving through Domain
0 uncontrolled by the ACM policy

* adds a script getlabel.sh that allows users inside Dom0 to retrieve the
label for a given ssid reference or a given domain id (multiple labels
might map onto a single ssid reference)

* cleans up label-related code in tools/security by merging common
functions into labelfuncs.sh

* cleans up ACM code related to above changes (eventually approximating a
common coding style)

Comments welcome.

Thanks
Reiner
