This removes the dependency on the `pkg/parsers/kernel` package, because secomp
only needs to consider Linux (and no parsing is needed for Windows or Darwin kernel
versions).
This patch implements the minimum requirements for this implementation:
- only `kernel` and `major` versions are considered
- `minor` version, `flavor`, and `-rcXX` suffixes are ignored
So, for example:
- `3.4.54.longterm-1` => `kernel: 3`, `major: 4`
- `3.8.0-19-generic` => `kernel: 3`, `major: 8`
- `3.10.0-862.2.3.el7.x86_64` => `kernel: 3`, `major: 10`
Some systems also omit the `minor` and/or have odd-formatted versions. In context
of generating seccomp profiles, both versions below are considered equal;
- `3.12.25-gentoo` => `kernel: 3`, `major: 12`
- `3.12-1-amd64` => `kernel: 3`, `major: 12`
Note that `-rcX` suffixes are also not considered, and thus (e.g.) kernel `5.9-rc1`,
`5.9-rc6` and `5.9` are all considered equal.
The motivation for ignoring "minor" versions and "flavors" is that;
- The upstream kernel only does "kernel.major" releases
- While release-candidates exists for kernel (e.g. 5.9-rc5), we don't expect users
to write profiles that target a specific release-candidate, and therefore consider
(e.g.) kernel `5.9-rc1`, `5.9-rc6` and `5.9` to be equal.
- Generally, a seccomp-profile should either be portable, or written for a specific
infrastructure (in which case the writer of the profile would know if the kernel-flavors
used does/does not support certain things.
