[Bug 988520] [NEW] After failed auth, subsequent auths in same context fail

Public bug reported:

MIT Kerberos 1.10 (including pre-releases and betas) exposed a bug in
the tracking of preauth mechanisms such that, if an authentication fails
after preauth was requested, all subsequent preauth-required
authentications in the same Kerberos context will also fail.

This breaks password change when credentials have expired, and also
breaks try_first_pass functionality in Kerberos PAM modules.

Upstream has fixed this problem in their mainline with commit 25822.
