Use fowner for salt_minion_t

Enable the fowner capability for the salt minion so that directory
metadata can be updated (such as the mode).

For instance, when trying to set mode 755 on a directory, the following
came up in the salt minion log (and the operation failed):

  2015-11-22 13:18:01,242 [salt.state       ][ERROR   ][3290] Failed to
  change mode to 0775

In the audit logs, the following occurred:

  type=AVC msg=audit(1448194681.239:118): avc:  denied  { fowner } for
  pid=3290 comm="salt-minion" capability=3
  scontext=system_u:system_r:salt_minion_t:s0
  tcontext=system_u:system_r:salt_minion_t:s0 tclass=capability
  permissive=0
