Public bug reported:
If I grant a user (via pam_cap) cap_setfcap+i, I would then expect them
to be able to use setcap without sudo. setcap is not provided with any
default file capabilities however, so either the user has to sudo, or I
have to grant the setfcap capability to setcap with setcap.
In my mind, it would be reasonable to grant setfcap+i to setcap by
default on installation.
