VBoxManage setextradata "macOS" "VBoxInternal2/EfiGraphicsResolution" "1920x1200"

Replace "macOS" and "1920x1200" with the desired VM name and display resolution. The readme has a list of supported display resolutions, but non-supported might work too. If you want display scaling, you'll have to install OpenCore which is quite a bit more involved.
