[libvirt] [PATCH 3/4] libvirt-guests: Check if URI is reachable before launching commands

This patch adds a check to the libvirt-guests script to check for the
URI to be alive before attempting any calls. This avoids nasty error
messages and allows us to fail gracefuly and continue on other URIs
configured in the script.
