It runs it:

  https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/blob/master/appliance/init#L196

But actually it only runs `reboot -f', because we have no systemd in
the appliance -- as there is only one process + udevd in the
appliance, using systemd would be overkill.  So that could be replaced
with a simple system call to `reboot (RB_AUTOBOOT)'.
