[PATCH 9/9] parser: don't fail on multiple SeriesReferences

Parallel parsing would occasonally fail with:

patchwork.models.MultipleObjectsReturned: get() returned more than one SeriesReference -- it returned 2!

I think these are happening if you have different processes parsing
e.g. 1/3 and 2/3 simultaneously: both will have a reference to 1/3,
in the case of 1 it will be the msgid, in the case of 2 it will be
in References. So when we come to parse 3/3, .get() finds 2 and
throws the exception.

This does not fix the creation of multiple series references; it
just causes them to be ignored. We still have serious race conditions
with series creation, but I don't yet have clear answers for them.
With this patch, they will at least not stop patches from being
processed - they'll just lead to wonky series, which we already have.
