I can get the current state from the Libvirt::Domain#state method,
yes.  What I'm looking for is the constant explaining *why/how* the
domain is in that state. :-(

It looks as though a) the Ruby bindings don't explicitly call that out,
and b) therefore there's no access method to the virDomainXXXReason
methods. :-(

Oh well..
