api: versioned symbols in libgfapi.so for compatibility
Use versioned symbols to keep libgfapi at libgfapi.so.0.0.0 Revisited to address broken build on Mac OS X See http://review.gluster.org/9036 Rebased to include http://review.gluster.org/#/c/9376/ (glfs_resolve()) but note that gerrit's "Rebase Change" couldn't do it. N.B. noticed that glfs_get_volumeid() decl in glfs.h was missing the __THROW, added it. On systems using ELF and the GNU toolchain, symbol versions are created with a .symver asm operand in the .c source file. Clang is claimed to be compatible with gcc, so we'll pretend for now that this also works with clang. On Mac OS X, aliases are created with __asm "magic" in the .h header file. In the normal case, when both the decl and defn match, that's all that's needed. In our case though the decl and defn don't match --- we have, e.g. a defn such as 'int glfs_foo(...)' and the corresponding decl is 'int pub_glfs_foo(...)'. To make this work we create the necessary aliases in the library at link time with the -alias_list link option. Note that this results in there being pairs of symbols in the .dylib, e.g. _pub_glfs_foo and _glfs_foo$GFAPI_3.4.0. We could use another link option, -unexported_symbols_list to elide the _pub_glfs_* symbols. (And we probably should.) Linux symbol versioning was essentially copied from Solaris; in general I would expect this to "just work" on Solaris, but until someone tries we don't really know.
