tpm2_load_cmd() reads TPMA_OBJECT with get_unaligned_be32(pub + 4), but
does not require public_len to cover that field.

A TPM 2.0 ASN.1 key blob with public_len zero makes the read begin at the
end of the B + 4-byte decoded allocation, causing a four-byte heap
out-of-bounds read before the TPM command is transmitted. This is reachable
from an unprivileged add_key() call when TPM trusted keys and a TPM2 device
are available.

This affects v5.13-rc1 and later kernels built with CONFIG_TRUSTED_KEYS=y
and CONFIG_TRUSTED_KEYS_TPM=y when a TPM2 device is present. A KASAN run
as UID 1000 with no effective capabilities reported:

BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in tpm2_unseal_trusted
Read of size 4 at addr ffff888106273b48 by task exploit/160
CPU: 1 UID: 1000 PID: 160 Comm: exploit
The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff888106273b40
 which belongs to the cache kmalloc-8 of size 8
The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of
 allocated 8-byte region [ffff888106273b40, ffff888106273b48)

TPMT_PUBLIC starts with the two-byte type, two-byte nameAlg and four-byte
objectAttributes fields. Require public_len to cover all eight bytes before
reading the attributes.

The exact input produced the KASAN read in 3/3 fresh boots. The fixed build
rejected it with -EINVAL and no KASAN report in 3/3 boots; valid TPM 2.0
ASN.1 and legacy trusted-key loads continued to succeed.

The issue was found with an LLM-assisted source audit and validated with an
end-to-end QEMU and swtpm reproducer.

Changes in v2:
- Describe the wrapper as the TPM 2.0 ASN.1 key format.
- Explain the eight-byte minimum next to the check.
- Return -EINVAL for a malformed TPMT_PUBLIC instead of -E2BIG.
- Replace the obsolete Assisted-by trailer with changelog disclosure.
