Tests: portability fixes for ipc.t

This fixes portability problems in ipc.t so that it can run on NetBSD:

1) EOPNOTSUPP value is OS-dependent. Learn it from system headers
   instead of hard-coding it in the script

2) liglusterfs embbeds its own UUID implementation. The function name
   may be the same as in built(in implementation from libc, but with
   different prototype. In that case, we must make sure python will
   use libglusterfs's version, otherwise we will crash in libc's UUID
   code. Since dlopen() does not make any guarantee on what symbol
   will be used, me need to preload libglusterfs when loading python.
   This is done using LD_PRELOAD.

3) In python code we need to load with RTLD_GLOBAL global in order
   to have dependencies loaded

4) Python's ctypes.util.find_library does not lookup LD_LIBRARy_PATH
   and may therefore miss the library. On failure, retry with less
   portable but more reliable explicit name
