[krbdev.mit.edu #6978] SVN Commit

Allow krb5_rd_priv and krb5_rd_safe to work when there is no remote
address set in the auth context, unless the KRB5_AUTH_CONTEXT_DO_TIMES
flag is set (in which case we need the remote address for the replay
cache name).  Note that failing to set the remote address can create a
vulnerability to reflection attacks in some protocols, although it is
fairly easy to defend against--either use sequence numbers, or make
sure that requests don't look like replies, or both.
