"connections" is plural, so s/is possible/are possible/

On the surface this (and the rest of the series) makes sense - it allows
older libvirt to be used with a newer ESX version which may or may not
work, until such time as newer libvirt has been tested to explicitly
work with that ESX.  But I'd like an opinion from someone that actually
uses esx:// URIs before checking this in.
