Hello,
I've been looking a bit more at this. there is definitively another
issue here which is the first one I found:
x86_64-poky-linux-objcopy:
/home/alexandre/poky/build-st/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64/linuxx64.efi.stub:
file format not recognized
This is the main issue here.
$ file
/home/alexandre/poky/build-st/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64/linuxx64.efi.stub

I tested with v253.7 and I properly get:
$ file

I really believe the recipe is not generating a working efi.stub. Can
you check?
