Matt Spinler, can you put a commit into openbmc/docs to permanently
document?

https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-dbus-interfaces is the starting
point for all dbus interfaces now. State-management is pretty well
documented: https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-dbus-interfaces/tree/master/xyz/openbmc_project/State

Your specific question about soft power-off, this is the default now for
the host object.  If you want to simply pull power (hard power-off) you
operate on the chassis object.
