[SRU] krb5-config is not needed for Active Directory support

[Didier Roche-Tolomelli]

[Impact]

 * We realized that sssd can still download GPO for password security rules even without krb5-config set. Also, it doesn’t need it to generate krb5 tickets.

[Test Plan]

 * Install the patch ubiquity version before starting it. Ensure that you have a sssd version with the GPO patch to check that GPO are downloaded

 * Proceed with the installation,enable Active Directory integration and reboot on the installed version.

 * After login in with a user registered on the Active Directory, you should have a /var/lib/sss/gpo_cache directory filed up with content. Also, /tmp should contain the krb5 user ticket.

[Where problems could occur]

 * This code impacts the Active Directory only option by reverting an isolated commit in it.

I verified ubiquity 20.04.15.14 and confirm that the packages are not installed after the installation of the release and the GPOs are still downloaded.

Marking as verification-done

  * connectity check: Make a distinction between local and global connection
    availability. For example, AD can be enabled with a working site
    connection but no internet, while package download requires a global
    connection. (LP: #1933095)
  * Configuring Kerberos is not required if DNS is configured properly on
    Windwos controller (LP: #1933098)
