Log Message:
devel/efivar: Add efivar 38
This is an adaptation of https://github.com/rhboot/efivar to make it
work on BSD systems. Amount of changes is quite substantial and is
very similar across *BSD systems, so a fork is used instead of a set of
patches (there are still small patches in the port related to building
on NetBSD).
Fully implementing libefiboot for a system will take a lot of work, so
it has limitations [1]. Generating abbreviated device paths works and
that's enough to boot an EFI payload, making it useful for fwupd.

Patch provided by Sergii Dmytruk in PR pkg/57559.
