When running in a container, we can propagate the exit status of pid1 as usual via the process exit status. This is not possible when running in a VM. Instead, let's send EXIT_STATUS=%i via the notify socket if one is configured. The user running the VM can then pick up the exit status from the notify socket after the VM has shut down.
