Add a new kernel command-line option, 'kunit_shutdown', which allows the
user to specify that the kernel poweroff, halt, or reboot after
completing all KUnit tests; this is very handy for running KUnit tests
on UML or a VM so that the UML/VM process exits cleanly immediately
after running all tests without needing a special initramfs.

If you have patches that do something just before the initrd, and then
you add more patches to shut down immediately after an initrd, people
may ask you to just use an initrd instead of filling the kernel with
these changes...

I mean, I get it, but it's not hard to make an initrd that poke a sysctl
to start the tests...

In fact, you don't even need a initrd to poke sysctls these days.
