[Bf-python] Scriptlink memory link

[Campbell Barton]

Its not a memory leak exactly, your making a new mesh each time the 
script runs
Ken hows about Mesh.Unlink() for zero user meshes?

the best solution is to make a dummy mesh
Mesh.New('some_dummy')
and reuse it. youll need to add some checks to get teh dummy if it 
alredy exists.

also BPyMesh.getMeshFromObject() will make a new mesh, but look at the 
args in BPyMesh.py and youll see it can accept a dummy mesh.
