Currently, on openSUSE Tumbleweed, ptrace_scope is disabled by default
(ptrace_scope=0). This makes Chromium sandboxing status showing as no and red
colored for both Ptrace Protection with Yama LSM entries.

Enabling ptrace_scope=1 this fixed the issue. And I think it's a security
hardening for the system.

There's a request to enable this feature on SUSE 15 SP4:

I am requesting this on openSUSE Tumbleweed.

For reference, ptrace_scope is enabled on Ubuntu since 10.10.
