What were you trying to do that didn't work?

Before version 8.0.0, virsh did not require additional polkit agent execution when connecting to libvirtd, but later versions require polkit agent execution every time a connection is made.

What is the impact of this issue to you?

This causes additional latency when executing commands in scripts; for example, when managing hundreds of VMs, the accumulated time will greatly affect work efficiency.

Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:

libvirt-client-8.0.0-23.4.module+el8.10.0+23205+d8da55c1

OR any libvirt-client with 8.0.0

How reproducible is this bug?:

Always.

Steps to reproduce

1. Fresh install RHEL8 and update to the latest minor version
2. Install libvirt*
3. Create a test VM with any kind of OS.
4. Login as normal user and then su to the root
5. Run the command `# virsh dominfo <VM-NAME>`

Expected results

The command should complete in a very short time. E.g. 0.08 seconds.

Actual results

The command completes in 0.8 seconds.
