Use X509_check_host() to verify KKDCP server cert

In the k5tls module, rely on X509_check_host() and
X509_check_ip_asc(), which were added in OpenSSL 1.0.2, instead of
doing our own verification.

There is one notable difference in behavior: X509_check_host() admits
wildcards with a prefix or suffix (but not both) within the label,
like "kdc*.mydomain.com".  The old code only allows a wildcard to
match a complete label.
