https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1631606 Changes made to manage and utilize a secondary connection driver to APIs outside the scope of the primary connection driver have resulted in some confusion processing polkit rules since the simple "access denied" error message doesn't provide enough of a clue when combined with the "authentication failed: access denied by policy" as to which connection driver refused or failed the ACL check. In order to provide some context, let's modify the existing "access denied" error returned from the various vir*EnsureACL API's to provide the connection driver name that is causing the failure. This should provide the context for writing the polkit rules that would allow access via the driver, but yet still adhere to the virAccessManagerSanitizeError commentary regarding not telling the user why access was denied.
