Request for classic confinement: hyperfine

1

Hello,

I’d like to request classic confinement for the “hyperfine” snap.

Hyperfine is a command-line benchmarking program (https://github.com/sharkdp/hyperfine). The snap requires classic confinement because hyperfine needs to start arbitrary binaries (which are going to be benchmarked).

See also this comment in the PR that added the snapcraft.yaml file: https://github.com/sharkdp/hyperfine/pull/102#issuecomment-446896603

This is similar to other profiling tools that need access to run arbitrary commands.

@evan, @popey, @Wimpress, @Igor - can one of you perform the vetting?

I did the vetting, and did the original PR on the upstream project. So +1 from me.

Granting use of classic. This is now live.

@sharkdp - your next upload should pass automated review.
