Log Message:
sn2princ: On getaddrinfo failure use the input

RFC 4120 says that we should not canonicalize using DNS. We cannot get
that far today, but there's no reason we should fail to use a
perfectly good principal name just because DNS is failing. For some
services there isn't even a requirement they be in DNS. With
AI_ADDRCONFIG there's no reason that Kerberos canonicalization should
fail simply because a v6 address is not present, for example.  So, if
getaddrinfo fails in krb5_sname_to_principal simply use the input
hostname uncanonicalized.
