Current trusted keys framework is tightly coupled to use TPM device as
an underlying implementation which makes it difficult for implementations
like Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) etc. to provide trusked keys
support in case platform doesn't posses a TPM device.

So this patch tries to add generic trusted keys framework where underlying
implemtations like TPM, TEE etc. could be easily plugged-in.

1. Needs to be somehow dissected into digestable/reviewable pieces.
Sure, will try to split this patch in next version.
2. As a precursory step probably would make sense to move all
   existing trusted keys code into one subsystem first.
Okay.
