Title:
  view/list: Fix handling of duplicate IDs from search()

Status in OpenERP GTK Client:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  A /broken/ model (report.membership) at the server happened to return
  duplicate ids of records (using a badly migrated dataset, too). This
  propagated to the Gtk client, which inserted the ids at duplicate
  positions of the list view. When iterating over them, the client was
  trapped into an OOM, which is critical and DoSes the host desktop.

  The server should never have done that, agreed. But, the network principle
  says "send clean, accept garbage", so we'd better not die if such data
  ever come again.
  Gently logging the case was the way to go. If we raise an exception (tried
  that), the Gtk framework will come back asking for the list item again,
  which ends up in an ugly full-load (but not lethal) of the client (and a
  few more calls to the server).
