Calling out to the humility binary to use the `hiffy` interface has some rough edges, notably it's very difficult to parse out errors. Use humility directly via Rust interfaces instead. Humility currently requires libusb which may not be available on Illumos systems. This can be compiled out via the `hiffy` feature.

I played around with making this a library in humility and ran into a version dependency nightmare when I tried to use
attest_datain the library. I then had the humility library just do the raw bytes but at that point I wondered why I was wrapping anything in humility in the first place.This is the first time I'm really trying to use hiffy/idol outside the core humility binary so it's very much an experiment in what actually works
