Title:
  Discovery of KRB5 ticket fails even if ticket is discoverable

Status in adsys package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in adsys source package in Jammy:
  Fix Committed
Status in adsys source package in Noble:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  tracking bug

  [ Impact ]

  Even if the krb5 ticket is discoverable, the discovery fails (but
  actually succeeded) So we cannot retrieve the policies or do any
  action with the controller.

  [ Test Plan ]

  This is not something that can be easily reproduced in a real
  environment, so the best approach to reproduce this issue is:

  1. Get adsys codebase before the fix. You can do this by getting the 
available version in the archive with the command:
    apt source adsys
  2. Run the TestTicketPath test located in internal/ad/krb5_test.go as many 
times as needed to get the failure. To run the test, open a terminal and, 
inside the mentioned directory, runs the test X times with the command:
    go test -run TestTicketPatch -count X
  3. The test can fail due to krb5_init_context changing the errno without 
returning any error.

  Without the patched version the test will fail after a number of runs.
  With the patch, it will not fail.

  [ Where problems could occur ]

  We now reset errno to 0, because krb5_init_context() can alter it,
  even if it succeeds. So the discovery always returns success when it
  succeeds.

  Worst case would be that discovery failed but errno is set to 0 but
  this is handled earlier in the code.
