This commit, fixes the virsh prompt when reconnection to the same URI is called: `virsh # connect --readonly` (Reconnect). The problem is happening because the code is considering URI (name) as a mandatory parameter to change the prompt. This commit remove the assignment into `priv->readonly` from `if (name)` conditional.
