riastradh b264f9cb2e lists: Remove bogus libfoo.so.N and libfoo.so.N.M obsolete entries.
These must stay around so applications linked against them will still
work after upgrade, even if libfoo.so now points to libfoo.so.(N+1)
or libfoo.so.N.(M+1).

Exceptions:

- I'm willing to believe the rump modules have a different story so I
  left those obsolete entries alone.

- libuv.so was never supposed to be exposed publicly anyway and never
  went out in a release.  (Maybe this information should be recorded
  somewhere?)

- Same is probably true of lib{gmp,mpc,mpfr}.so, not sure of the
  history.  Maybe libg2c.so too, no idea what that is.

- libisns.so was moved from /usr/lib to /lib, so it's legitimate for
  the debug data to live there too now.  (XXX Maybe we should have a
  separate marker for this.)

- Libraries under /usr/tests are not used by normal applications, so
  they can safely be deleted when obsoleted.

Note: The libfoo.so symlink for a library that has been deleted
altogether, not just upgraded, can be obsoleted.  Loadable modules
that applications aren't linked against can be obsoleted, even if
some of them like npf ext_*.so or pam_*.so are formally versioned
(for reasons unclear to me).

Note: This means that incremental builds may complain about these
.so.N and .so.N.M files in destdir (PR misc/57581), but it's much
worse for an upgrade to break working applications.
