    Remove incorrect KDC assertion
    
    The assertion in return_enc_padata() is reachable because
    kdc_make_s4u2self_rep() may have previously added encrypted padata.
    It is no longer necessary because the code uses add_pa_data_element()
    instead of allocating a new list.
    
    CVE-2018-20217:
    
    In MIT krb5 1.8 or later, an authenticated user who can obtain a TGT
    using an older encryption type (DES, DES3, or RC4) can cause an
    assertion failure in the KDC by sending an S4U2Self request.
