Backport of #29358.

Fixes #29355.

We already increment a reference to out in _set_out_array (in ufunc_object.c):

c
static int
_set_out_array(PyObject *obj, PyArrayObject **store)
{
    ...
    Py_INCREF(obj);
    *store = (PyArrayObject *)obj;

    return 0;
    ...
}

This PR removes additional increments and adds a missing decrement that caused the memory leakage.

…umpy#29358)

Add back missing DECREF for `out=` in ufunc.reduce (and etc.) when `out` is passed.

* BUG: add Py_XDECREF to `out` for failure case in generic reduction

* TST: add reference count checks for `out` in reduction leak tests
