remote: add support for probing drivers with modular daemons

Browse Source 
With the traditional libvirtd, the virConnectOpen call will probe active
drivers server side to find which one to use when the URI is NULL/empty.

With the modular daemons though, the remote client does not know which
daemon to connect in the first place, so we can't rely on virConnectOpen
probing. Currently the virtproxyd daemon has code to probe for a
possible driver by looking at which sockets are listening or which
binaries are installed. The remote client can thus connect to virtproxyd
which in turn can connect to a real hypervisor driver.

The virtproxyd probing code though isn't something that needs to live in
virtproxyd. By moving it into the remote client we can get probing
client side in all scenarios and avoid the extra trip via virtproxyd in
the common case.
