Every time you cold start application with Wine you can think about it as a
computer powerup/boot from application point of view. So to "reboot" just
terminate an application and start it again.

If you want this for your own software then you have to implement it on your
own, Wine shouldn't be able to shutdown a machine.

Not sure if it's supposed to prove anything.
