virConnectOpenAuth didn't require 'name' to be specified (VIR_DEBUG
used NULLSTR() for the output) and by default, if name == NULL, the
default connection uri is used. This was not indicated in the
documentation and wasn't checked for in other API's VIR_DEBUG outputs.

Thanks to Guannan's patch, this makes the following possible in python:
conn = libvirt.open()
which I personally find pretty nice.
