This updates the CMake support to additionally symlink the soversion value
to the generated shared library when so generated. This aligns the
generated soversion with that traditionally used by the Makefile build
workflow and provides cross-compatibility irrespective of build approach
used.
The primary version of the non-symlink library retains the actual
(non-SO) project version for clarity and compatibility with
installations built using prior versions of CMake support. An example of
the net resulting symlink structures is shown below, where the most
important aspect is that the symlink matching the embedded SONAME is
present (libprotobuf.so.30 in the example case).
