With SELinux enabled for the target it makes sense to have SELinux
support enabled for the native tools, too.

Note that for native packages DISTRO_FEATURES is filtered, thus up to
now it never contained "selinux". Replace the target_selinux() with
bb.utils.filter(), allowing native packages to pick up "selinux" when
DISTRO_FEATURES_FILTER_NATIVE is configured.

Document in README how to enable SELinux support for native tools by
appending "selinux" to DISTRO_FEATURES_FILTER_NATIVE.

+Enable SELinux support on native tools
+--------------------------------------
+By default, native tools are not built with SELinux support. With target
+support for SELinux it is very helpful during debug when the native tools
+support SELinux, too. This can be achieved, for example, by adding to
+local.conf:
+
+DISTRO_FEATURES_FILTER_NATIVE:append = " selinux"
