read_sys_metadata_field() vs read_sys_metadata_fields() is hard to
distinguish due to there's only one character difference. This is one
reason I added "stbuf" prefix hoping to make it more clear that this
function reads multiple fields to a buffer of a structure.
In terms of "sysmd" I just wanted to make the function name shorter. This
function is only used by tdx.c internally so I think it's fine.
Anyway I am open on this. Let's wait for some more time to see whether
other people have comments or not.
