This is not included yet as this table
(EFI_TCG2_FINAL_EVENTS_TABLE_GUID) relies on the TPM2 format for the
log entries (TCG_PCR_EVENT2, "Crypto Agile"). I first plan to add the
parsing of this log version (ie, efi_retrieve_tpm2_eventlog_2) before
adding the merging of both tables. But these will be separate patch
sets.
