[PATCH] perf/scripts: tuple was set from long in both branches in python_process_event()

[Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com>]

This is a fix to the signed/unsigned field handling in the Python
scripting engine, based on a patch from Roel Kluin.

Basically, Python wants to use a PyInt (which is internally a long) if
it can i.e. if the value will fit into that type.  If not, it stores it
into a PyLong, which isn't actually a long, but an arbitrary-precision
integer variable.

The code below is similar to to what Python does internally, and it
seems to work as expected on the x86 and x86_64 sytems I tested it on.
