Description

Adds tools and libraries for reading and writing EFI variables exposed by system firmware. These variables are used for boot configuration, firmware settings, and other low-level platform data.

Most users only need it as a dependency of boot or firmware tools. Direct writes to EFI variables should be handled carefully because incorrect values can affect boot behavior.
