NACK.

The virDomainReboot() API semantics are to perform a *graceful*
reboot of the guest. ie, the guest OS shuts down normally, and
then does a warm reboot of the virtual machine.


The system_reset monitor command does an *immediate* reset of
the virtual machine, without any guest shutdown.


If you want to expose this capability, then it should be done
via a new API.  virDomainReset(), or by adding a new flag like
VIR_DOMAIN_REBOOT_IMMEDIATE to the existing API.

Daniel
