Description

Linux: optionally run <argv0>-renderer. Ubuntu has AppArmor, which triggers based on binary names. Since we only want to sandbox the renderers they need to have a different name than the main Chromium binary (although it can just be a hard link to the same file). Thus, we probe to see if "<argv0>-renderer" exists. If so, we run that.

How hard is it to always have argv0-renderer?  It seems like even if the user
doesn't have AppArmor, we should still have the hardlinked chromium-renderer and
start that for renderer processes (easier to identify in ps and doesn't have to
check disk for the executable each time we want to start a renderer).

I imagine we need to update scons/gyp and the dpkg script.
