     bhyve: Support a _VARS.fd file for bootrom
OVMF creates two separate .fd files, a _CODE.fd file containing
     the UEFI code, and a _VARS.fd file containing a template of an
     empty UEFI variable store.
OVMF decides to write variables to the memory range just below the
     boot rom code if it detects a CFI flash device. So here we add
     just the barest facsimile of CFI command handling to bootrom.c
     that is needed to placate OVMF.

Hmm, how does this work with the configuration stuff?  I would expect the
vars file to be a separate config file variable (e.g. lpc.vars_file or the 
like)?
Can you document it in bhyve_config.5 and fix it to use a separate variable if
that is intended?
