Research direction

Reproduce the issue with `multipass restart` while watching `multipass list`, beginning with the libvirt backend and then checking the hyperv and virtualbox paths named in the issue. Trace how restart state is reported during reboot; done means the instance is not shown as `Running` throughout the restart for the affected backends.
