[PATCH] efi_loader: explicitly return EFI_UNSUPPORTED for TCG 1.0 compatibility

In the EFI TCG spec EFI_TCG2_BOOT_SERVICE_CAPABILITY struct is
versioned -- there are 1.0 and 1.1 versions of that struct.
The spec [0] describes:
"Version of the EFI_TCG2_BOOT_SERVICE_CAPABILITY
structure itself. For this version of the protocol, the Major version
SHALL be set to 1 and the Minor version SHALL be set to 1."
which is what we currently support.
The SCT tests perfromed By Arms SIE(Security interface extensions) [1]
perform a check for clients supporting the older 1.0 version of the
spec (Test 30.1.1.4). Given than this spec is 7 years old, there should
be no need for the older 1.0 version support. Instead of returning
EFI_BUFFER_TOO_SMALLL switch to EFI_UNSUPPORTED which is more
appropriate. It's worth noting that the spec doesn't explicitly
describe the return value at the moment.

Heinrich, Stuart is investigating the chance of the spec getting updated
adding EFI_UNSUPPORTED. In any case I think the patch should be aplied since
the new return code makes more sense. If for some reason the spec change is
rejected, I can go back and add support for 1.0 structure versions.
