    Fix defcred leak in krb5 gss_inquire_cred()
    
    Commit 1cd2821c19b2b95e39d5fc2f451a035585a40fa5 altered the memory
    management of krb5_gss_inquire_cred(), introducing defcred to act as
    an owner pointer when the function must acquire a default credential.
    The commit neglected to update the code to release the default cred
    along the successful path.  The old code does not trigger because
    cred_handle is now reassigned, so the default credential is leaked.
    
    Unify the success and failure cleanup for this function so that
    defcred is properly released on success.
    
    Reported by Pavel Březina.
