This series of patches for the master/4.1 branch attempts to implement
some of the Rob's and Petr Vobornik's ideas which originated from a
discussion on this list regarding my original patch fixing
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/4808.

I suppose that these patches are just a first iteration, we may further
discuss if this is the right thing to do.

Below is a quote from the original discussion just to get the context:


The original kinit_hostprincipal had `ccachedir` argument, the new one has `ccache_name`. But the new code still prepends FILE ccache type:

old: ccache_file = 'FILE:%s/ccache' % ccachedir
new: ccache_file = 'FILE:%s' % ccache_name

I would remove the line because I understand the use of 'ccache_name' name as equivalent of KRB5CCNAME and therefore I would expect that the value of this argument would be used to set the environment variable WITHOUT any modification. And mainly, user is limited only to FILE ccache type.

I also wonder if
  os.environ['KRB5CCNAME'] = ccache_file
has to be set when ccache is defined by krbV call:
   ccache =  krbV.CCache(name=ccache_file, ...

krbV snipped doesn't use it so maybe we can remove it.
