Many embedded devices support reboot flags to control the result of the reboot sequence.
Examples include android's reboot bootloader and reboot recovery.
Both android and mainline linux enable these flags, and systemd reboot supports them.
Unfortunately busybox reboot does not pass the flag to the kernel for handling.

Tested against 1.31.1 built in buildroot-2020.05.
