Subject: separate OVMF binary for TDX? [was: OvmfPkg: Reserve the Secrets and Cpuid page for the SEV-SNP guest]

Can we please pry a little bit at that "one binary" requirement?

Ultimately the "guest bundle" is going to be composed by much
higher-level code, I expect (such as some userspace code, written in
python or similar); selecting a firmware binary in such an environment
is surely easier than handling this "polymorphism" in the most
restrictive software environment imaginable (reset vector assembly code
in the guest)?

Thanks
Laszlo
