    Fix KDC encrypting key memory leak on some errors
    
    Commit 0ba5ccd7bb3ea15e44a87f84ca6feed8890f657d separated the
    allocation and destruction of encrypting_key, causing it to leak when
    any of the intervening calls jump to the cleanup label.  Currently the
    leak manifests on transited or authdata failures.  Move encrypting_key
    destruction to the cleanup label so that it can't leak.  Reported by
    anedvedicky at gmail.com.
