Subject: [PATCH] pythonPackages.magic: Fix loading libmagic.so

Even with the previous `python.patch` file around, libmagic.so isn't
found. Instead patch it to use an absolute path, using a similar
approach that is used by the `python_magic` package (which is another
libmagic python wrapper library as well).
