    Document aliases for enterprise get_principal
    
    Enterprise principals are always aliases.  In most contexts when we
    see them we pass KRB5_KDB_FLAG_ALIAS_OK to the KDB module's
    get_principal method, but for S4U2Self clients we currently do not.
    Document that a KDB module may return an alias for enterprise
    principals regardless of flags.
