Hi Lev!

I like to see this and dependet parts of TPM in base system. I not yet
have a TPM chip to test it, but in near future plan to purchase one.

Some part of bsssd is already in ports:
/usr/ports/emulators/tpm-emulator
/usr/ports/security/openssl_tpm_engine
/usr/ports/security/tpm-tools
/usr/ports/security/tpmmanager
/usr/ports/security/opencryptoki
/usr/ports/security/trousers

I think in future should extending the loader to support TPM and it's
probably depend on EFI things.
