Suffixes -unt and -ut-
I just discovered the two conditional suffixes on vortaro.net:
-ut- : la ofendutoj pardonu!
-unt- : eĉ perfiduntan mi ŝin volas mia!
But I don't understand the given exemples. Can someone help me translate, please ?

I comment instead of answering, as it is no direct answer to your question: The conditional suffixes are generally seen as being against the norm (the Fundamento grammar, §6, fixes the morpholgy of the verb; besides that it would be illogical to put mood into a verbal form that expresses relative time), and they are hardly ever used (and then often in a joking tone). I highly recommend not to use them at all

la ofendutoj pardonu
According to the definition in PIV, and much like other participles, ofenduto means iu, kiun oni ofendus; just like ofendito means iu, kiun oni ofendis. Thus la ofendutoj pardonu means more or less ‘Those who would be offended should forgive.’
eĉ perfiduntan mi ŝin volas mia!
I have no idea what this means either, even without the -unt-participle. But perfidunta means ‘such that it would betray’. So perfidunta homo = homo, kiu perfidus iun.
EDIT: As Vincent Oostelbos pointed out, the example sentence probably should be parsed as follows:
Mi volas ŝin, eĉ perfiduntan, mia!
Thus this would mean something like: ‘I want her to be mine, even if she would betray me.’
1
I think perfidunta(n) would be something like 'such that one would betray', as you wrote. This would describe the 'ŝin' in the sentence, so the whole thing would be something like: Even (with her) being in a state where she would betray (me), I want her as mine! A more natural translation would be, Even if she would betray me, I want her to be mine!

Oh, yes, that makes sense. The sentence is very weirdly phrased so I really could not parse it, but thank you! I think that makes sense and I'll add it to the answer for completeness sake.
