    Fix S4U2Self KDC crash when anon is restricted
    
    In validate_as_request(), when enforcing restrict_anonymous_to_tgt,
    use client.princ instead of request->client; the latter is NULL when
    validating S4U2Self requests.
    
    CVE-2016-3120:
    
    In MIT krb5 1.9 and later, an authenticated attacker can cause krb5kdc
    to dereference a null pointer if the restrict_anonymous_to_tgt option
    is set to true, by making an S4U2Self request.
