The RESET event is delivered by qemu only when the guest OS is actually
allowed to reboot ('-no-reboot' or equivalent is not used) and due to
the nature of async handling of the events VM is actually already
executing guest code after the reboot, until our code gets to killing
it.
In general it should have been impossible to reach a state where the
reboot action is 'destroy' but we didn't use '-no-reboot' but due to
various bugs it was.
Due to the fact that this was not a desired operation and additionally
guest code already is executing I think the best option is not to kill
the VM any more (possible data loss?) and rely for the proper fix where
we use the new 'set-action' QMP command to enable an equivalent
behaviour to '-no-reboot' during runtime.

Libvirt API for virtualization
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
