[PATCH] qemu: tpm: Enable creation of certs for TPM 1.2 in non-privileged mode

When 'swtpm_setup --print-capabilities' shows the 'tpm12-not-need-root'
flag, then it is possible to create certificates for the TPM 1.2 also
in non-privileged mode since swtpm_setup doesn't need tcsd anymore.
Check for this flag and create the certificates if this flag is found.
