Bug Description

Hello,

It looks like tpm2-tools in Bionic doesn't properly work.

From version in Bionic:
$ tpm2_startup --version
tpm2_startup, version

From version in Focal:
$ tpm2_startup --version
tool="tpm2_startup" version="4.1.1" tctis="libtss2-tctildr" tcti-default=tcti-device

We also have other problems, as reported in LP: #1801024.
$ tpm2_startup -c
Failed to initialize tcti context: 0x1

Other packages that need tpm2-tools (like keylime, et al) will not work properly because of this. Do you think it makes sense to backport tpm2-tools from Focal? Since the version in Bionic is also old and I guess the newer version has some good benefits over the one in Focal.
