    Remove klist's defname global variable
    
    Addition of a "cleanup" section in kinit's show_ccache() function as
    part of commit 6c5471176f5266564fbc8a7e02f03b4b042202f8 introduced a
    double-free bug, because defname is a global variable.  After the
    first call, successive calls may take place with a dangling pointer in
    defname, which will be freed if krb5_cc_get_principal() fails.
    
    Convert "defname" to a local variable initialized at the beginning of
    show_ccache().
