Similar to what virsh and virt-login-shell do

I can't actually reproduce the bug, the backtrace is similar to
97973ebb7 which added the same fix for virt-login-shell, and
that commit also mentions the randomness of reproducing...

So, based on Luyao's feedback on the modified patch I attached to
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1350315, ACK if you replace
virInitialize call with virAdmInitialize (do not forget to export the
symbol through public syms :)...). I keep wondering though, why none of
us (you, me, and Martin) was able to reproduce it even once.


I would still rather not require users to need to call that
initialization function, but many other things in admin API went
differently than I planned them to, so it's just going to be another
todo in my user-friendliness branch (that I only have in my head), I
guess.  Let's at least fix it for now.  ACK.
