--verbose please.

The VMM loads the firmware just fine today without that metadata because
it's defined by the x86 architecture how to the firmware must be loaded.

And note that we are discussing an unified normal/sev/tdx firmware
binary here, so the "we might do something completely different for
tdx in the future" argument isn't very convincing here.

take care,
