[PATCH]Delete unnecessary codes in auditd-config.c and audispd-pconfig.c

Hi Steve,
  I think such code about "basename" in auditd-config.c and audispd-pconfig.c
is unnecessary. In these part codes "nv->value" can't be null and "basename()" will 
never return an empty string. And the variable "base" is not used in the following 
codes. So such codes are better to be deleted.
  Do you agree with me?
