When issuing a chassis 'powerdown' control command, the routine
qemu_system_shutdown_request() should be used to exit the guest.
qemu_system_powerdown_request() will initiate a soft shutdown which is
not what is required by the IPMI (28.3 Chassis Control Command):
0h = power down. Force system into soft off (S4/S45) state. This
is for 'emergency' management power down actions. The command does
not initiate a clean shut-down of the operating system prior to
powering down the system

FWIW this had been suggested during the review:

We could use qemu_system_powerdown_request() under
IPMI_SHUTDOWN_VIA_ACPI_OVERTEMP which is what is expected I think.
5h = Initiate a soft-shutdown of OS via ACPI by emulating a fatal
overtemperature. (optional)
This looks appropriate indeed.
