Fix double-free in KDC TGS processing

When issuing a ticket for a TGS renew or validate request, copy only
the server field from the outer part of the header ticket to the new
ticket.  Copying the whole structure causes the enc_part pointer to be
aliased to the header ticket until krb5_encrypt_tkt_part() is called,
resulting in a double-free if handle_authdata() fails.

[ghudson at mit.edu: changed the fix to avoid aliasing enc_part rather
than check for aliasing before freeing; rewrote commit message]

CVE-2023-39975:

In MIT krb5 release 1.21, an authenticated attacker can cause a KDC to
free the same pointer twice if it can induce a failure in
authorization data handling.
