Those patches were from 2015/2016, and all currently supported distro
versions should now have more current versions than that. Looking at the
oldest supported versions;
Ubuntu 18.04 "Bionic":
apparmor_parser --version
AppArmor parser version 2.12

AppArmor parser version 2.13.2

contrib
The contrib directory contains packages that do not belong in the core containerd packages but still contribute to overall containerd usability.
Package such as Apparmor or Selinux are placed in contrib because they are platform dependent and often require higher level tools and profiles to work.
Packaging and other built tools can be added to contrib to aid in packaging containerd for various distributions.
Testing
Code in the contrib directory may or may not have been tested in the normal test pipeline for core components.
