The term "VARS" is a contraction for "VARiableS".

Current we use "vars file", or just "vars" in the texts, source and commit messages. Maybe it's nicer to stay consistent and use: "VARS file" or "OVMF VARS file".

As even the EDK2 RPM itself uses "VARS" in the file names

$> rpm -ql edk2.git-ovmf-x64-0-20180109.b3261.g427b2f41a6.noarch | grep VARS
