I searched through my disk and was unable to find a persistant efivars
storage in my VirtualBox 6.0 installation. 

A Google search reveals some articles (rather dated I must admit)
stating that VirtualBox does not support NVRAM emulation for storing efi
variables:

they recommend using startup.nsh instead.  I wonder if bhyve's efi
implementation supports startup.nsh.
