safe and fast shutdown/reboot

[zealjagannatha@xxxxxxxxx (Zeal Jagannatha)]

I think it would be better for the services you define to specifically
define their own `KillSignal` so you can control how they shutdown.
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.kill.html#KillSignal=

It's may not be safe for all the services on the machine to be shut down
with SIGKILL, so you should avoid using '--force' unless you know that
everything running on the system is safe to shutdown with SIGKILL.
