profiles: deny access to ~/.config/autostart (#6257)

The files in this directory are intended to be automatically executed
when the user logs in.

In which case, granting write access to this directory allows the
program to easily escape the sandbox (by autostarting itself outside of
firejail, for example).

Misc: This was noticed on #6244.
