tools/kvm_stat: indicate dead guests as such

Stefan-Raspl · rkrcmar · commit 404517e40867 · 2018-08-30T17:15:12.000+02:00
For destroyed guests, kvm_stat essentially freezes with the last data
displayed. This is acceptable for users, in case they want to inspect the
final data. But it looks a bit irritating. Therefore, detect this situation
and display a respective indicator in the header.
