apparmor: replace recursive profile removal with iterative approach

commit ab09264660f9de5d05d1ef4e225aa447c63a8747 upstream.

The profile removal code uses recursion when removing nested profiles,
which can lead to kernel stack exhaustion and system crashes.

Reproducer:
  $ pf='a'; for ((i=0; i<1024; i++)); do
      echo -e "profile $pf { \n }" | apparmor_parser -K -a;
      pf="$pf//x";
  done
  $ echo -n a > /sys/kernel/security/apparmor/.remove

Replace the recursive __aa_profile_list_release() approach with an
iterative approach in __remove_profile(). The function repeatedly
finds and removes leaf profiles until the entire subtree is removed,
maintaining the same removal semantic without recursion.
