[Skiboot] [PATCH] core/platform: Fallback to full_reboot if fast-reboot fails

If fast reboot fails then we return to Linux with OPAL_SUCCESS.
Current Linux code thinks that request succedded and enters
infinite loop (see Linux pnv_restart() code).
This patch fixes above issue by return OPAL_UNSUPPORTED if fast
reboot fails.
Alternatively we can directly all full_reboot() itself. But I
think it makes sense to go back to Linux and report the failure.
And Linux falls back to normal reboot request.
Fixes: 10bbcd07 ("core/platform: Add an explicit fast-reboot type")
