The patterns used in filenames of so objects aren't really well defined.
In particular, the numbers typically used like libfoo.so.MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
are only informative.

The libhts convention is: libhts.so.SO_VERSION → libhts.so.PROJECT_VERSION.
Upstream correctly says that there's no chance of conflict because PROJECT_VERSION
always includes a dot and SO_VERSION doesn't. The compiler doesn't care.

I'd say that this is a bit misleading, but not wrong. Not worth deviating
from upstream.
