On second thought, this is even better...

rrdc_connect(char *daemon)
  if daemon specified --> connect
  else if environment --> connect
  else no-op

This preserves the ability for other client programs to respect the
environment variable without having to know what it is...  other clients
that call librrd directly can just call:

	rrdc_connect(NULL);
