           Summary: ports-mgmt/portlint: Should complain when USE_LDCONFIG
                    is used with a .so library without the corresponding
                    symbolic link(s)

Currently "USE_LDCONFIG=yes" is suggested when a shared library is installed.

However, portlint needs to additionally complain when "USE_LDCONFIG=yes" is
used with a shared library without the corresponding symbolic link(s).

For example, lib/libxx.so is installed but no lib/libxx.so.0 is installed.

The problem with this is that ldconfig(8) only registers symlinked libraries,
and doesn't register single libxx.so libraries.
