The finished observation may not reach a receiver, because of unspecified order in which primus components are executed. E.g. greedy scheduler can intercept finished observation and kill a machine. As a result, no taint is ever finalized, which hits any analysis that depends on it. And this PR introduces taint finalization on the halt observation, which happens before finished.
