Fix attest: fallback to tpm2_nvread when attestation-cli fails
az-snp-vtpm has a TPM auth policy bug on Azure CVM images where the AK exists at 0x81000003 but Esys_Quote fails with 0x000001d5. tpm2_quote works directly (no ESAPI auth issue). New strategy: 1. Try attestation-cli attest first (ideal: JSON with cert chain) 2. If that fails, use tpm2_nvread to extract the HCL report from vTPM NV index 0x01400001 (contains the SNP attestation report) 3. Store evidence JSON with host_key_hash binding verify now: - Auto-generates evidence if missing (runs attest on first verify) - Handles both attestation-cli evidence and tpm2_nvread fallback - No "verify independently" instructions — fully automatic Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
