Where could I add/modify the code to generate such images or, at
least, some instructions on how to deploy for the pine64/sunxi?

The base image is arm64.img.gz, this should work as-is on Raspberry Pi 3 and Tegra X1.

Sorry for being ignorant, I'm new to NetBSD, is the arm64.img supposed to be raw sdcard image that I could write to the SD card with dd? 

For Allwinner SoCs (A64 and H5) you need to apply a board specific U-Boot to the image or SD card first.

So I alter the image and dd with some command like the one below? 

dd if=uboot.img of=arm64.img bs=512 notrunc

Then dd the resulting file over the sdcard block device?

I prepare images for known working boards at www.invisible.ca/arm based on the daily auto-builds with U-Boot already applied if you want to go that route.
