Nack.

We need to rethink how we're handling KRB5 being offline. As discussed 
elsewhere, we don't want services depending on the SSSD's activity-only 
online detection before looking up and pointing at the correct KDC.

Please see the email thread "How to handle kdcinfo when offline" for 
more details.
