Why isn't the partitltion simply fixed in size?
BOOTDD_EXTRA_SPACE looks like an undocumented interface of OE wic to request, well, extra space on the boot partition. meta-efibootguard tries to implement this, just like https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/scripts/lib/wic/plugins/source/bootimg-efi.py. You may also specify a fixed size for your partition in the wks file, of course.
