It seems a bit pathological to check if maxNames <= 0 and throw an error if it is 0. In particular if you don't have any defined domains or networks (both fairly common scenarios) then this causes an error when you just pass the result of NumOfNetworks straight into ListNetworks. Backend drivers & QEMU seem to have no problem with maxNames being zero, so let's allow it.
