Trying to connect to a remote virtual machine using virt-viewer -c qemu+ssh://example.com/system --direct $vm_name will currently fail with an error message saying it's not possible to localhost. This happens with VMs which listen on a wildcard address (eg '0.0.0.0'). This was introduced by commit 74b1b62 which changes the host to connect to to 'localhost' when trying to connect through ssh to a VM listening on a wildcard address. This is only valid when using a ssh tunnel, and should not be done with --direct. The fallback code which uses the hostname from the libvirt URI is what makes the most sense in this situation (wildcard listen address + --direct). This commit introduces a virt_viewer_app_get_direct() so that this can be implemented.
