[iptables PATCH] extensions: Install symlinks as such

[Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc>]

Fake shared objects which are actually symlinks to others are installed
using 'install' tool which follows them and therefore installs a copy of
the file they point at. Fix this by introducing special handling for
them in install target.

Fixes: 269655d54e22f ("build: remove symlink-only extensions from static object list")
