[Python] Fix memory leak.

Browse source 
SWIG python objects were being freed after the corresponding SWIG
module information was destroyed in Python 3, causing leaks when as
a result the object destructor could not be invoked. To prevent this
misordering, SWIG python objects now obtain a reference to the
Python capsule wrapping the module information, so that the module
information is correctly destroyed after all SWIG python objects
have been freed (and corresponding destructors invoked).
