I have a work-in-progress refactoring which makes
TYPE_MACHINE be a subclass of TYPE_DEVICE, with the aim of
converting all the MachineClass::reset functions into
proper Resettable reset functions. If we did that then all
these reset functions would take a ResetType anyway.
But I might not get round to having another go at that
refactoring for a while, and this is a good cleanup in the
meantime.
