virSecuritySELinuxSetFileconImpl: Drop @optional argument

The only thing that the @optional argument does is that it makes
the function return 1 instead of 0 if setting SELinux context
failed in a non-critical fashion. Drop the argument then and
return 1 in that case. This enables caller to learn if SELinux
context was set or not.
