…r/*/ICEauthority-l.

This resolves long login delays into X11 guest sessions when using
Arctica Greeter (forked from Unity Greeter). While waiting for the
desktop to appear, the screen stays black and a non-WM'ed dialog box
appears on screen, saying: "Could not update ICEauthority file
/run/user//ICEauthority".

When testing with MATE desktop, apparmor denies esp. creating this link
operation:
operation="link" class="file" profile="/lightdm-guest-session"
name="/run/user/997/ICEauthority-l" pid= comm="mate-session"
requested_mask="l" denied_mask="l" fsuid= ouid=
target="/run/user//ICEauthority-c"

Similar in Xfce4:
operation="link" class="file" profile="/lightdm-guest-session"
name="/run/user/997/ICEauthority-l" pid= comm="iceauth"
requested_mask="l" denied_mask="l" fsuid= ouid=
target="/run/user//ICEauthority-c"
