This removes logging of the errors entirely on the
server side which is not desirable for debugging.
We need to keep the logging, but at the low level.

These don't make sense to me.

We should have a funtion in virterror.c

  static logLevel = -1;

  virErrorSetLogPriority(int level) {
    logLevel = level;
  }

  ...


  prio = logLevel == -1 ? virErrorLevelPriority(level) : logLevel;
  virLogMessage(virErrorDomain(domain), prio, funcname, linenr, 1, "%s", stR);

so that errors are always logged, simply at varying levels
