Documentation is maintained in texinfo format in doc/grub.texi. It is
lacking, but there is list of available commands with index, so just
adding it would be good. It should ideally be a bit more verbose
(examples are welcome) than usage printed at run time.

Do we really need unit8 at all? "hex" already provides exactly the same
functionality, not? Do you think there are cases when uint8 is really
required?

If we remove unit8, this becomes really "Display EFI_VAR" not "Parse
EFI_VAR", as no parsing really happens.

Assuming uint8 remains - should not you check that variable size is
exactly 1 byte in this case?

In OOM case you access NULL pointer here.

grub_free already checks for NULL, no need to do it extra.
