I can't comment about the actual options but they won't be included in
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX if you don't include them within the quotes as
you've done:

"rd.md=0 ... rhgb quiet"
drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=edid/1024x768.bin video=VGA-1:e

You need:

"rd.md=0 ... rhgb quiet drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=edid/1024x768.bin
video=VGA-1:e"
