[RFC][PATCH 1/6] ima: connect defined IMA templates through a linked list

[Roberto Sassu]

This patch connects defined templates through a linked list so that it
will be possible to append new descriptors when the functionality
of specifying a custom template in the policy will be introduced.
Template search by name is still performed by iterating over
'defined_templates' array items.
