[krbdev.mit.edu #7863] profile library mishandles duplicate subsections

In krb5.conf, if you specify the same top-level section (like [realms])
multiple times, you get the same section node each time, because
parse_std_line calls profile_find_node_subsection before
profile_add_node.
But when the parser reads a subsection name, it blindly calls
profile_add_node. If the subsection already exists, profile_add_node
creates a second subsection with the same name, which will be invisible
to searches.
