[CMake] Linux shared library suffixes and the soft link that matches

[david_bjornbak at agilent.com]

Is there's a standard way under CMake to produce Linux shared libraries with the numbered suffix and then soft link that references the library with a numbered suffix.  For example,  it's common to have a build a library foo with the name  libfoo.so.1.2.3 and then have a soft link named libfoo.so to point to it.

The following is an example of the libz using this configuration.

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root    15 Jun 16 11:23 libz.so -> libz.so.1.2.1.2
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root    15 Jun 16 11:23 libz.so.1 -> libz.so.1.2.1.2
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 63624 Jul 12  2005 libz.so.1.2.1.2
