[libvirt] [PATCH] Log client errors in libvirtd at debug priority

[Matthias Bolte]

This reverts commit

 Log all errors at level INFO to stop polluting syslog
 04bd0360f32ec628ecf7943b3fd1468d6eb2dde5.

and makes virRaiseErrorFull() log errors at debug priority
when called from inside libvirtd. This stops libvirtd from
polluting it's own log with client errors at error priority
that'll be reported and logged on the client side anyway.
---

This is basically a v2 for

https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2010-November/msg01060.html

v2 logs client error at debug priority in libvirtd instead of
not logging them at all. Also the way it's implemented is
changed the way that Daniel suggested.
