Removing tpm_command.h causes unnecessary noise.

It would be better to retain tpm_command.h, and simply supplement
it with TPM2 constants.

Also, what is the reason to not have both TPM1 and TPM2 in tpm.h?

To put the question in other words: is there something in tpm.h that
would be incompatible with early boot code?

I'd rather tweak that than have more files...
