AUDIT: Defer freeing aux items until audit_free_context()
While they were all just simple blobs it made sense to just free them as we walked through and logged them. Now that there are pointers to other objects which need refcounting, we might as well revert to _only_ logging them in audit_log_exit(), and put the code to free them properly in only one place -- in audit_free_aux().
