Same name but different information. --version is telling you about
the virsh binary version, while 'version' is telling you about the
open connection to libvirt. Putting the virsh binary build options
in 'version' would be somewhat misleading, because they don't
reflect the open connection
Yeah I didn't want this to rely on a connection, it's not driver
specific in any way, which is why --version was looking fine, but I will
hook this to -V, that's very simple,
