Subject: [PATCH] Add '.so' as additional shared object suffix

EXT_SUFFIX includes a platform information tag starting from Python 3.5 [0]
For example:

    >>> sysconfig.get_config_var("EXT_SUFFIX")
    '.cpython-38-aarch64-linux-gnu.so'

This suffix only applies to cpython extensions i.e. not to the iptables shared
objects.

Adding '.so' as an additional suffix for shared objects fixes the issue.

Fixes: Issue #301
