Public bug reported:

If initctl isn't present in the image, a shutdown will take (by default)
60 seconds to timeout.

In the case of initctl not being present, we figure this out immediately
by way of this error from libvirt:

error: Operation not supported: Container does not provide an initctl
pipe

If we detect this, we should abort the retry loop immediately, and
switch to the unclean shutdown (_destroy_instance).
