-0ubuntu3 uploaded with these three changes.
NB I have not handled migrating permissions from the tss user to the
swtpm user on upgrade from -0ubuntu[12]. The package has been in jammy
for a handful of days so I haven't bothered - the upgrade handling could
be added later if there are complaints.

Title:
Please create swtpm user/group
Status in swtpm package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
As outlined in bug 1948880 the intention is to utilize the user
"swtpm" instead of "tss" to avoid too much permissions of "tss" which
is in use in other places.
But I realized that dependencies using swtpm would mostly be to package "swtpm" and not "swtpm-tools".
Therefore I'd ask to have package swtpm to establish that user instead of swtpm-tools.
Furthermore (I'll flag that in the MIR bug 1948748) the postinst uses adduser without a dependency which is Build-Essential but not Essential and therefore needs a dependency.
Lintian:
W: swtpm-tools: maintainer-script-needs-depends-on-adduser adduser [control/postinst:18] (does not satisfy adduser)
And while this will touch postinst, also as heads up:
W: swtpm source: maintainer-script-lacks-debhelper-token debian/swtpm-tools.postinst
