Ignore launch() error in virt-rescue. (RHBZ#618556)

launch() expects guestfsd to start, which it never does in virt-rescue, so it
always returns an error about the appliance shutting down unexpectedly.

Matthew Booth [Thu, 26 Aug 2010 13:34:44 +0000 (14:34 +0100)]
Shut down the appliance cleanly

When guestfsd exits, or the user exits the virt-rescue shell, the init script
exits which causes the kernel to panic. This isn't really a functional issue, as
all useful work is done by this point. However, it does cause virt-rescue to
display an unsightly error message.

This patch causes the appliance to power off cleanly before the init script
exits. Note it actually does a reboot rather than a poweroff. This is because
ACPI is disabled in the appliance, meaning poweroff doesn't work, but qemu is
configured not to restart on reboot.

Call sync after guestfsd exits

Core files are not reliably written to disk if guestfsd dumps core. This patch
makes libguestfs do the same appliance cleanup for guestfsd and virt-rescue,
which seems to fix the matter.

It also removes a redundant sleep and additional sync when exiting virt-rescue.

Rename global 'xdr_str'.

Two bits of XDR both contained a definition called 'str' which
means that 'xdr_str' was being exported globally twice.  Because
of the linker script this didn't affect us.  But it's best to
rename this global so that conflicts cannot arise.
