The build system currently creates a shared library on OS X with the
same name as on Linux i.e.  libnode.so.48.  This is inconsistent with
the conventions on OS X which uses libnode.48.dylib This commit changes
the build process and install.py (used by make binary) to build with
the correct name on OS X when the --shared configure parameter is used.
