If multiple files match the pattern libfoo.so*, we want to check each of
them and see if they are shared libraries, and if so, if they have
versions attached.
But some packages can have both shared libraries and random files which
match the filename pattern. This is true at least for files in
/usr/share/gdb/auto-load/, which must match the filename they are paired
with, followed by "-gdb.py" (or some other gdb scripting ext), but
definitely don't contain a shared library. In this case, we don't want
to double-report the library in the generated provides.
It's also possible (probably) for a package to provide a versioned as
well as an unversioned shared library, but in such cases a single
provides entry is sufficient to cover both cases (and the libdepends
for the depending package would contain an unversioned dependency).
Solve this by keeping track of whether we have added a versioned soname
provides already, and then only adding a maximum of one unversioned
provides *iff* there isn't a versioned one yet.

Notes:
Currently we only have gdb/auto-load/ scripts for shared libraries in:
- gcc
- glib2
- gstreamer
- efl
In the first 3 cases, libprovides is entirely useless anyway.
libstdc++ is perpetually stable (backwards-compatible ABI) just like glibc.
glib2 actually does use libprovides, despite that it makes no sense for glib2
to libprovide anything, as the glib2 developers have this thing where they
always use a soname of "0" and bump ABI versions by changing libglib-2.0.so to
libglib-3.0.so -- as a result if you want to track dependencies you need to
change to a different soname manually, and might as well just depend on the
package itself (which already has a version in the pkgname).
(gstreamer is in the same boat as glib2 because it is part of the same ecosystem.)
efl doesn't currently libprovide "libeo.so", but if it did, then the issue
would exist and be fixed by this patch. And more generally, any project wishing
to implement gdb/auto-load/ scripts could have this issue, so it makes sense to
make it work nicely.
