And why it does test with and without "module".
Because it always did (there's a thing called backwards compatibility.)
This is of course probably the obvious one to start a deprecation process.
But why do we check the long suffix for the *new* extension module naming variants from PEP 3149 and PEP 384? Those are completely new, so there's no backwards compatibility argument there.
It's for easy transition I guess -- you take the same module name and just tack on .abi3.so instead of .so.
