[RFC PATCH-for-5.1 2/2] tpm: List the available TPM backends

[Philippe Mathieu-Daudé]

When an incorrect backend is selected, tpm_display_backend_drivers()
is supposed to list the available backends. However the error is
directly propagated, and we never display the list. The user only
gets "Parameter 'type' expects a TPM backend type" error.

Convert the fprintf(stderr,) calls to error hints propagated with
the error.

RFC because this is now odd in tpm_config_parse():

  tpm_list_backend_drivers_hint(&error_fatal);
  return -1;
