Each element in the returned hashtable has a key which
is the path of the mountpoint (eg. C</boot>) and a value
(see L<http://libvirt.org/uri.html>). If this is not set then
we connect to the default libvirt URI (or one set through an
environment variable, see the libvirt documentation for full

-the domain object, and call C<guestfs_add_libvirt_dom>.
