edk2-* packages are noarch. Secondary architectures should imho import
built binary packages into repository.

Qemu allows you to emulate several architectures on many architectures -
basically any Fedora supported one (primary or secondary) on any of them.

qemu-system-{x86,aarch64,arm,x86-64} may use UEFI binary to run VM.


Some time ago I was using virt-manager to test aarch64, arm, ppc64,
ppc64le, x86, x86-64 VMs on aarch64 and x86-64 hosts.
