As discussed on IM but repeating for the list, plugins should always
be real .so files and not symlinks to versioned files.

If a plugin is on disk as symlinks and versioned files, then you need
to pass more flags to libtool: -shared -avoid-version -module is the
canonical set to get a loadable module without a static counterpart
and versioned symlinks.

Ideally a few patches to the build will remove the need for every
dev-so insane skip in connman.
