try searching dynamic library with all possible extension

Currently db-use.class in portage overlay assumes that the extension of dynamic library is .so, therefore db library weren't found on my OS X laptop, on which platform the correct extension is .dylib.

I made a little fix and attached  patch. The list of extensions is copied from db.eclass.

Thanks!  We could also use get_libname() from multilib.eclass, that would cover even more cases.

I applied this one:
