USN-4668-3: python-apt regression

USN-4668-1 fixed vulnerabilities in python-apt. The update caused a
regression when using certain APIs with a file handle. This update fixes
the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

Kevin Backhouse discovered that python-apt incorrectly handled resources. A
local attacker could possibly use this issue to cause python-apt to consume
resources, leading to a denial of service.
