Poweroff obviously hangs forever, as on x86 reboot is something
relatively well-defined with some level of consistency since the 8086
days, and poweroff is a relatively recent (ACPI was released in 1996)
addition and a horrible mess. So CrosVM supports the former (and uses it
to exit) but not the latter.
