How about placing them in pc-bios/efi-$arch subdirs and not renaming the
files, i.e. that would be ...

        pc-bios/efi-aarch64/QEMU_EFI.fd
        pc-bios/efi-aarch64/QEMU_VARS.fd

... for arm, and ...

        pc-bios/efi-x86_64/OVMF_CODE.fd
        pc-bios/efi-x86_64/OVMF_VARS.fd

... for x86.

I'd tend to prefer (1).
