The admin connection defaults to the system-wide 'libvirtd' daemon to
manage (libvirtd:///system). As we've now switched to modular daemons
this will not work for most users out of the box:
$ virt-admin version
error: Failed to connect to the admin server
error: no valid connection
error: Failed to connect socket to '/run/user/1000/libvirt/libvirt-admin-sock': No such file or directory
As we don't want to assume which daemon the user wants to manage in the
modular topology there's no reasonable default to pick.
Give a hint to the users to use the '-c' if the connection to the
default URI fails:
$ virt-admin version
NOTE: Connecting to default daemon. Specify daemon using '-c' (e.g. virtqemud:///system)
