Return full path when gcc or ld are used to find the library. That wa…

…y, we don't rely on the SONAME being set (it isn't set for many libraries), nor do we rely on the SONAME being the same as the filename (which isn't necessarily true). Finally, it resolves the issue that find_library only returns the library name, and then if some python code opens this library dynamically, the runtime loader might find a different one (or none at all, e.g. because LD_LIBRARY_PATH is filtered)
