This change introduces a new TPM backend driver that can communicate with
swtpm(software TPM emulator) using unix domain socket interface. QEMU talks to
the TPM emulator using QEMU's socket-based chardev backend device.
Swtpm uses two Unix sockets for communications, one for plain TPM commands and
responses, and one for out-of-band control messages. QEMU passes the data
socket to be used over the control channel.
The swtpm and associated tools can be found here:

The swtpm's control channel protocol specification can be found here:
https://github.com/stefanberger/swtpm/wiki/Control-Channel-Specification
Usage:
# setup TPM state directory
mkdir /tmp/mytpm
chown -R tss:root /tmp/mytpm
/usr/bin/swtpm_setup --tpm-state /tmp/mytpm --createek
# Ask qemu to use TPM emulator with given tpm state directory
qemu-system-x86_64 \
[...] \
-chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/swtpm-sock \
-tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
-device tpm-tis,tpmdev=tpm0 \
[...]
