Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The problem is that the current OpenBSD stanza uses MEMDISK and is not UEFI compliant.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add the following stanza to allow for sanboot and UEFI compliance while installing.
:openbsd
sanboot https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.9/amd64/install69.img

I'm not confident in how to integrate into netboot.xyz proper.

Describe alternatives you've considered
install69.img seems to be the only filesystem with a proper EFI preinstalled.

Additional context
I have tested on amd64 only.
