The PEP 383 introduces filename using surrogates. ctypes.dlopen() support them. ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary('libc\uDCff.so.6') fails with:

   UnicodeEncodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't encode character '\udcff' 
   in position 4: surrogates not allowed

Attached patch fixes this issue.

TODO: Remove the assert(PyBytes_Check(name2)). I don't know if PyUnicode_FSConverter() does always return a PyBytes object or not.
