Don't create hostbased principals in new KDBs

Unix-like platforms do not provide a simple method to find the
fully-qualified local hostname as the machine is expected to appear to
other hosts.  Canonicalizing the gethostname() result with
getaddrinfo() usually works, but potentially uses DNS.  Now that
dns_canonicalize_hostname=true is no longer the default, KDB creation
would generally create the wrong host-based principals.

kadmin/hostname is unnecessary because the client software can also
use kadmin/admin, and kiprop/hostname is one of several principals
that must be created for incremental propagation.
