libvirt-guests ensures graceful shutdown of the VMs (which is a good
thing) so at the moment when the host gets down, there are no VMs
running there.  We need that info at the moment when a VM is shut down
and I think we can get it by examining some systemd service (if ignoring
some not so important timing issues).
