You cannot add modules to a signed image. grub-install will build an 
unsigned core image embedding the specified modules, but when installing 
for secure boot, it will use the monolithic signed image instead of the 
resulting unsigned core image (yes, it's a waste).

grub-efi-amd64-signed does not build monolithic images, it just signs 
the images provided by grub-efi-amd64-unsigned (and were previously 
included in grub-efi-amd64-bin). The list of modules included in 
monolithic images is defined in source package grub2, so reassigning 
this bug.
