cmake: Fix shared library versioning on NetBSD
What changed, and why it matters
This commit fixes how version numbers are assigned to the shared library when building on NetBSD. It is a build-system portability fix with no apparent security relevance.
No security action required; treat as a normal build-system portability fix.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The change adds a NetBSD branch in cmake/SetLibtoolAbiVersion.cmake to set SOVERSION and VERSION according to NetBSD’s shared-library versioning conventions (similar to SunOS: major=current, full version=current.revision). This aligns the CMake build with libtool behavior and prevents incorrect library versioning on NetBSD. No cryptographic, memory-safety, or input-handling code is modified.
