Hmm, I'm not sure whether this check is required for
ATTESTATION_EVIDENCE_BLOB_EVENT_LOG blob type.
for example, if the provider provides two evidence:
- ATTESTATION_EVIDENCE_BLOB_PRIMARY (might attestation token)
- ATTESTATION_EVIDENCE_BLOB_EVENT_LOG
might challenge is reuiqred for generating the token
and this would be marked at min/max_challenge_size in evidence_cap.
However, in case of eventlog, it wouldn't require challenge.
for example, TPM event log or CCEL event log.
Do we need some field on attestation_evidence_supported_object whether
it requires challenge or not and applies this sanity check per the object?
Otherwise, to get eventlog, it would need to send *dummy* challenge
always.
