podman: podman --connection not working on macOS (failed to resolve active destination: service destination not found)

Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST? (leave only one on its own line)

/kind bug

Description

running podman --remote --connection <connection-string> <some-command> with the Podman MacOS client errors with Error: failed to resolve active destination: "<connection-string>" service destination not found

Steps to reproduce the issue:

Server(s): Podman 3.0.1 on Fedora 33 (prepared for remoting) Client: Podman 3.0.1 on MacOS 11.2.2 x86_64 (installed via homebrew)

On the Mac client:

1. create two connections:

$ podman system connection add conA --identity /Users/myuser/.ssh/podman_rsa ssh://root@servA/run/user/0/podman/podman.sock
$ podman system connection add conB --identity /Users/myuser/.ssh/podman_rsa ssh://root@servB/run/user/0/podman/podman.sock
$ podman system connection default conA

1. default connection works (without --connection):

$ podman --remote info
...
hostname: servA
...

1. trying to use same connection with --connection <connection-string> fails:

$ podman --remote --connection conA info
Error: failed to resolve active destination: "conA" service destination not found

(same for the other connection, also same without --remote)

Describe the results you received:

$ podman --remote --connection conA info
Error: failed to resolve active destination: "conA" service destination not found

Describe the results you expected:

$ podman --remote --connection conA info
host:
  arch: amd64
...

Additional information you deem important (e.g. issue happens only occasionally):

• --remote --connection <connection-string> to the same servers seems to work when remoting from a Linux host.
• did not test on Windows
