How can a male snake be a "female maker" or "male maker"?

It really isn't that confusing. If the male banana came from a male banana, it will make mostly male bananas. If the male banana came from a female banana, it will make mostly female bananas. Sex ratios don't change. Female bananas produce as expected. At least that is the conclusion we can come to with the current info.

Mechanics behind it are unknown, it is an anomaly never seen before. Z's and W's might play some sort of factor, but the gene is not sex linked. Otherwise we could say it is linked to Z or W.

Actually it is not something never seen before and the mechanics behind it are quite obvious. This is the first in ball python genetics that we have seen, but definitely not the first sex linked gene in the animal kingdom.
