I figured out why selinux wasn't initialized in our setup. The image
missed selinux packages, so init could not initialize it. I've added
these packages:
https://github.com/google/syzkaller/commit/c0e5b8c81f054a301aeaaa16bf9c6220ba73d833
and now sestatus says that selinux is initialized.

I've also added some very basic description of selinux interface:
https://github.com/google/syzkaller/commit/fadd10ac0525a437fc32e412327bdf11587f4946#diff-517fae0da2ea50677a86c092cf96781e
Not enough to meaningfully test selinux, though.
