Python auparse bindings memory leak

Hi list

The get_timestamp function in the auparse extension module seems to have an
extra Py_INCREF. There's already a #FIXME at the line:
https://fedorahosted.org/audit/browser/tags/audit-2.5.1/bindings/python/auparse_python.c#L1090
.

Has this been investigated before? Rebuilding the package with that
increment removed resolved our memory usage issues, so I'm hoping this
doesn't silently break something.
