I have added warnings for:

- deprecated enctype issuance on KDC
- deprecated enctypes in klist output
- deprecated enctype in stash / K/M

to the latest rawhide builds (krb5-1.17-3.fc30).

If I backport this to fc29, will that assuage people's concerns?  Or do
I need to defer the change until fc31?

Thanks,
