Instruct the python module to load the SONAME versioned shared object.
Normal end-user systems may only have available libnftables.so.1.0.0 and not
libnftables.so which is usually only present in developer systems.
In Debian systems, for example:
% dpkg -L libnftables1 | grep so.1
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnftables.so.1.0.0
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnftables.so.1
% dpkg -L libnftables-dev | grep so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnftables.so
The "1" is not a magic number, is the SONAME of libnftables in the current
version, as stated in Make_global.am.
