[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: better detection of crashed domains

When libvirtd is started and there is an unusable/not-connectable
leftover from earlier started machine, it's more reasonable to say
that the machine "crashed" if we know it was started with
"-no-shutdown".
This patch fixes that and also changes the other result (when machine
was started without "-no-shutdown") to "unknown", because the previous
"failed" reason means (according to include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in:174),
that the machine failed to start.
