security: vboot: Clarify PCR extension algorithms/sizes
The PCR algorithms used for vboot are frequently causing confusion (e.g.
see CB:35645) because depending on the circumstances sometimes a
(zero-extended) SHA1 value is interpreted as a SHA256, and sometimes a
SHA256 is interpreted as a SHA1. We can't really "fix" anything here
because the resulting digests are hardcoded in many generations of
Chromebooks, but we can document and isolate it better to reduce
confusion. This patch adds an explanatory comment and fixes both
algorithms and size passed into the lower-level TPM APIs to their actual
values (whereas it previously still relied on the TPM 1.2 TSS not
checking the algorithm type, and the TPM 2.0 TSS only using the size
value for the TCPA log and not the actual TPM operation).
