apropos(1) doesn't turn up "efibootmgr or any similar utilities"
as in Free/DragonflyBSD, but gpt(8) may be able to do what you need:

     gpt set -l
     gpt set [-a attribute] [-N] [-i index] [-b startsec]
             The set command sets various partition attributes.  The -l flag
             lists all available attributes.  The -a option specifies which
             attributes to set and may be specified more than once, or the
             attributes can be comma-separated.  If the -N option and no -a
             option are specified, all attributes are removed.  The -i or the
             -b option specify which entry to update.  The possible attributes
             are “biosboot”, “bootme”, “bootonce”, “bootfailed”, “noblockio”,
             and “required”.  The biosboot flag is used to indicate which
             partition should be booted by legacy BIOS boot code.  See the
             biosboot command for more information.  The bootme flag is used
             to indicate which partition should be booted by UEFI boot code.
             The other attributes are for compatibility with FreeBSD and are
             not currently used by NetBSD.  They may be used by NetBSD in the
             future.

[Same for NetBSD-8/9/10/current;  caveat:  I'm pretty clueless about about
UEFI myself.]
