demandimportpy3: only use lazy extension loader on Python 3.6+

There was an inline comment denoting a bug in the lazy extension
loader on Python 3.5 which prevents it from working there. But the
code was not conditional on the Python version.

The result of this was a myriad of failures on Python 3.5 due to
getattr() and friends not working on lazy extension modules.

By making extension modules non-lazy on Python 3.5, we reduce the
number of test failures from 48 to 22 on that Python version.

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
