The POSIX standard puts processes which are not the owner or a member in
the owning group or which match any ace other then everyone@ on the
other file class.  We only know if a process is in the other class after
processing the entire acl.

Move all everyone@ aces in the acl down in the acl so that at most a
single everyone@ allow ace remains at the end.  Permissions which are
not explicitly allowed are implicitly denied, so an everyone@ deny ace
is unneeded.

The everyone@ aces can be moved down the acl without changing the
permissions that the acl grants.  This transformation simplifies the
following algorithms, and eventually allows us to turn the final
everyone@ allow ace into an entry for the other class.
