Do kinit in client before connecting to backend

The client installer was failing because a backend connection could be
created before a kinit was done.

Allow multiple simultaneous connections. This could fail with an NSS
shutdown error when the second connection was created (objects still
in use). If all connections currently use the same database then there
is no need to initialize, let it be skipped.

Add additional logging to client installer.
