Some state files were prefixed with the machine name which protected against collisions when running concurrent machines in a systemd unit with RuntimeDirectory= set. However, the socket files tpm.sock and control were not, which caused a race. Prefixing these socket files does not work because the path gets too long when both the subdirectory and the socket file within it get unique identifiers. Instead of prefixing all files, we can rather always create a subdirectory and use simple names within in. This makes paths shorter in the normal case and protects against races with RuntimeDirectory= were instead of directly reusing RUNTIME_DIRECTORY we also create the normal per-machine subdirectory. Since this here is about runtime state it should not impact any running VMs/containers. The ssh-proxy looks only at the normal case and does not support RUNTIME_DIRECTORY, so no impact there as well.
