Implement internal helper wrappers tdx_tdcm_alloc(), tdx_tdcm_run(),
and tdx_tdcm_free() to manage execution context lifecycle for TDX Connect
TEE-IO Device Control and Management (TDCM) commands.

Use these infrastructures to deploy all TDCM commands to orchestrate
trusted device management, beginning with the first command,
TDCM_OP_CHECK_TEEIO_SUPP, executed during the secure device locking
sequence.

Since TDCM and all concepts around it are coupled to TDX Connect why are those defines in the shared tdx.h file? OTOH, why is struct tdcm_ctx {} defined in connect.c and not in the shared file? I think it's high time we decided whether code coming for additional functionality should go into the shared header or a file, specific to said functionality.

My 2 cents are that since TDCM is solely related to connect then it should probably be part of connect.h or some private header under tdx-guest/ directory. It's not expected for kernel proper to use that interface, no ?
