bpf, libbpf: fix version info and add it to shared object



Even though libbpf's versioning script for the linker (libbpf.map)
is pointing to 0.0.2, the BPF_EXTRAVERSION in the Makefile has
not been updated along with it and is therefore still on 0.0.1.

While fixing up, I also noticed that the generated shared object
versioning information is missing, typical convention is to have
a linker name (libbpf.so), soname (libbpf.so.0) and real name
(libbpf.so.0.0.2) for library management. This is based upon the
LIBBPF_VERSION as well.

The build will then produce the following bpf libraries:

  # ll libbpf*
  libbpf.a
  libbpf.so -> libbpf.so.0.0.2
  libbpf.so.0 -> libbpf.so.0.0.2
  libbpf.so.0.0.2

  # readelf -d libbpf.so.0.0.2 | grep SONAME
  0x000000000000000e (SONAME)             Library soname: [libbpf.so.0]

And install them accordingly:

  # rm -rf /tmp/bld; mkdir /tmp/bld; make -j$(nproc) O=/tmp/bld install

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                        libelf: [ on  ]
  ...                           bpf: [ on  ]
