According to https://bugs.python.org/issue36707, this tag is useless
since version 3.4, but also the default until version 3.8.

For example, Debian 10 ships libpython3.7m.so.

Yep agreed 👍

This probably needs a CHANGELOG entry - something along the lines of "default to m abi tag when choosing libpython link name for Python 3.7 on unix", perhaps?
