This reverts commit bdbc739d6e.
Such a change needs more thought put into it. By versioning
shared libraries we'd make a false impression that libraries
themselves are actually versioned and have some sort of stable
ABI, which is not the case.
This will be useful when C bindings become stable, but as long
as they are experimental it does not make sense to set SONAME.
Also this change should not have been backported, since it's
severely breaking.
