Successful updates for the firmware after deleting, resetting SecureBoot keys
in the firmware and booting in the real UEFI mode

Anyway, after a few tries to delete and reset the SecureBook keys, like in
those comments on Github, I manged to bring the size back to 35%:
Filesystem     1K-blocks  Used Available Use% Mounted on
efivarfs             384   132       248  35% /sys/firmware/efi/efivars
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After multiple trials and changes to the SecureBoot, I manged to delete + reset
the keys and changed something from  custom to the default, where I chose from
the radio buttons the KEK option.
Then booted with the entry that has the "UEFI:" prefix even though also
"debian" as as an UEFI boot entry as I looked better.
After restart Dolphin checked for updates and showed these 2, which installed
successfully, though requiring a restart.
With 35% usage in  /sys/firmware/efi/efivars, everything is fine.
Though I wanted to check with Dolphin too, but Dolphin show the wrong free
space available when you are in the /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/ folder (many
GiBs available)
A bug that might be related to this:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=521063
Anyway, with the right firmware configuration and booting in the right mode,
Dolphin and its backend works for firmare updates too or at least for the
SecureBook keys, like in this case.

Sorry for all the noise for nothing!
