don't cut away the "release" spec.

libtool link --release 10.56 -o libfoo.la
  creates
libfoo-10-56.dll

Currently the "release" marker is the only way to get
at variant libraries - kinda misuse, I know, but
better than nothing.

I don't think that library_names_spec is the correct
place to specify the importlib - but where to place
it else, hmm... the problem is more that it must
be created somehow while in the making and placed
additionally (!!) in the la spec to be installed
later.
