TDH.SYS.INIT() initializes global canary value.  TDX module is compiled with
strong stack protector enabled by clang and canary value needs to be
initialized.  By default, the canary value is stored at
%fsbase:<STACK_CANARY_OFFSET 0x28>

Although this is a job for libc or language runtime, TDX modules has to do it
itself because it's stand alone.

>From tdh_sys_init.c
_STATIC_INLINE_ api_error_type tdx_init_stack_canary(void)
{
    ia32_rflags_t rflags = {.raw = 0};
    uint64_t canary;
    if (!ia32_rdrand(&rflags, &canary))
    {
        return TDX_SYS_BUSY;
    }
...
    last_page_ptr->stack_canary.canary = canary;
