ps2: Don't wait 100ms to discard possible extra reset receive byte
The existing PS2 port code waits 100ms to see if the device attached
to the keyboard port responds to a reset command with two bytes
(instead of the normal one byte). If an extra byte is received, it is
discarded.
Receiving two bytes would be unusual and waiting to check for that
event is unnecessary because the next command in the keyboard init
sequence already seamlessly discards any extra bytes in the command
queue.
This patch eliminates the 100ms wait, which notably reduces the
SeaBIOS boot time on QEMU. This patch also forces PS2 mice to always
respond with two bytes during a reset sequence (instead of just one
byte), which is a good sanity check.

This patch adds an implementation of SHA1 (following NIST specs., IETF RFC 3147

makes use of this interface and measures (calculates SHA1) of the Linux kernel
and initrd. Those files can be rather large and hunting their bytes through
the TIS interface as part of the int handler commands invoked by trusted grub
does take quite some time due to the many vmexits the interface is creating
(one per byte).
There is also a threshold for the size of data to hash (100k) below which
the TPM is used and above the internal faster SHA1 algorithm is used.
This patch for example enables trusted grub to interact with the TPM
and take additional measurements.
