keys/trusted/tpm2: Validate TPM2_Create object sizes separately
This commit updates trusted key creation to validate TPM2_Create object
sizes separately from the complete response area. It also adopts scope-based
cleanup to simplify resource management.

[Severity: Low]
Does this function mix goto-based error handling with scope-based cleanup?
Looking at tpm2_seal_trusted() in security/keys/trusted-keys/trusted_tpm2.c,
it defines resources using scope-based cleanup:
struct tpm_buf *buf __free(kfree) = NULL;
struct tpm_buf *sized __free(kfree) = NULL;
But the function still uses goto labels for TPM operations cleanup:
out:
if (!rc)
payload->blob_len = blob_len;
out_put:
tpm_put_ops(chip);
return tpm_ret_to_err(rc);
The cleanup subsystem guidelines expect that usage of goto and cleanup
helpers are never mixed in the same function.
Could the remaining goto labels in tpm2_seal_trusted() be converted to
scope-based cleanup to avoid mixing paradigms?
