After compiling liboqs on MacOS, i could not find a location for a liboqs.so, only a .dylib.

After changing the Environment to look for liboqs.dylib instead of liboqs.so, the tests ran fine.

Suggest change of documentation to reference dylib (if this is just a Mac thing) or generally to .dylib if this has been a change over last merge.

More than happy to provide a PR.

Hi Ryan! .dylib is a macOS thing, .so is Linux. So yes our documentation should reference both of them. A PR would be great!
