ACCUMULO-4348 Deprecate KerberosToken constructor with side effects
`KerberosToken(String, File, boolean)` is deprecated in favor of
`KerberosToken(String, File)`.
The boolean flag would log in the requested user with Hadoop's
`UserGroupInformation` class. This
changed global state about who the active user was. In a multi-user
environment, this potentially
made little sense as other users could overwrite eachother.
This patch includes a convenience constructor that doesn't have any side
effects, but has the same
semantics as logging in a user with a keytab.
