Fix for memory leak in EnumerateActions call results handler.

I've found, that policykit-1-0.105 in my Debian Wheezy doesn't release reference counters of GVariant data for org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Authority.EnumerateActions DBUS call resulting data. 

See patch in attachment.
g_variant_ref_sink (child) call was odd in case of iterating array child items.

There is high possibility that this bug causes memory leaking in kded4 (see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=271934) and other policykit-1 client software.

Looks good to me, thanks!  I tweaked the commit message to match the standard style, and pushed.
