    Do not loop on principal unknown errors
    
    If the canonicalize flag is set, the MIT KDC always return the client
    principal when KRB5_KDC_ERR_C_PRICIPAL_UNKNOWN is returned.
    
    Check that this is really a referral by testing that the returned
    client realm differs from the requested one.
    
    [ghudson at mit.edu: simplified and narrowed is_referral() contract.
    Note that a WRONG_REALM response with e-data or FAST error padata
    could now be passed through k5_preauth_tryagain() if it has an empty
    crealm or a crealm equal to the requested client realm.  Such a
    response is unexpected in practice and there is nothing dangerous
    about handling it this way.]
