If you try to define a domain with this configuration the post-parse
callback removes the path, see qemuDomainChrDefDropDefaultPath().  When
the guest is started there is another function,
see qemuDomainPrepareChannel(), where we generate a path in one is
missing and also changes the mode to "bind".

So yes, this fixes the symptom but it's still a valid fix because the
test XML is invalid, you should not use this generated path.
