It's very similar to our `qemu-bios` executable. It's very similar to our `qemu-bios` executable.
The only two differences are that it passes an additional `-bios` argument and that it uses the `UEFI_IMAGE` instead of the `BIOS_IMAGE`. The only two differences are that it passes two additional `-drive if=pflash,..` arguments to load UEFI firmware (`OVMF_CODE.fd`) and writable NVRAM (`OVMF_VARS.fd`), and that it uses the `UEFI_IMAGE` instead of the `BIOS_IMAGE`.
Using a quick `cargo run --bin qemu-uefi`, we can confirm that it works as intended. Using a quick `cargo run --bin qemu-uefi`, we can confirm that it works as intended.
