Remove erroneous text from kinit man page

Commit 4c4859fa83295db5c26f47b96c719060cfd9e2b1 changed the kinit man
page to state that kinit -E (enterprise) implies -C (canonicalize).
The client does not automatically set the canonicalize option when
getting tickets for an enterprise principal, and Windows KDCs can
issue tickets for enterprise principals without canonicalizing the
principal (contrary to the implication of RFC 6806 section 5).  Remove
the misleading text.
