why are there two krb5_realm_params, in adm.h and admin.h?

This is an old mess which just hasn't been cleaned up. adm.h is used in
the KDC code; kadm5/admin.h is used everywhere else. adm.h isn't
installed and has no external stability guarantees, and would probably
be the one to go away in a more perfect tree. kadm5/admin.h is
installed but has explicitly weak stability guarantees.
At the moment you'll need to make changes to both structures.
