This isn't a justification ... Intel just screwed up.  Whatever the
UEFI spec says about PCR mapping, the log spec the TCG produces
requires the header event to have a pcrIndex of 0 and, since it isn't
recorded in a PCR, it doesn't matter what the mapping is.

Just say Intel misread the spec and wrongly sets pcrIndex to 1 in the
header and since they did this, we fear others might, so we're relaxing
the header check.

James
