device/virtio-nsm: Support for Nitro Secure Module device
Nitro Secure Module (NSM)[1] device is used in AWS Nitro Enclaves[2]
for stripped down TPM functionality like cryptographic attestation.
The requests to and responses from NSM device are CBOR[3] encoded.

This commit adds support for NSM device in QEMU. Although related to
AWS Nitro Enclaves, the virito-nsm device is independent and can be
used in other machine types as well. The libcbor[4] library has been
used for the CBOR encoding and decoding functionalities.
