The generated Python bindings loaded `libz3.so` without a soversion,
which could bind to an ABI-incompatible shared library when multiple Z3
versions are present. This change makes Linux bindings prefer the
versioned soname while leaving other platforms on the existing lookup
path.
- **Python loader generation**
- Thread a `z3py_soversion` parameter through `scripts/update_api.py`.
- Generate `_lib_name` as `libz3.so.<major>.<minor>` on Linux, and keep
`libz3.<ext>` elsewhere.
- Reuse `_lib_name` consistently for directory probing, system fallback,
and error messages.
- **Build-system wiring**
- Pass the current `SOVERSION` from the CMake Python bindings build on
Linux.
- Pass the same value through the `mk_make`/`mk_util.py` generation path
so both build systems emit the same loader behavior.
- **In-tree Python bindings layout**
- Add the matching `libz3.so.<major>.<minor>` link in `build/python/` on
Linux so the generated bindings work directly from the build tree.
- **Regression coverage**
- Add a focused script-level test for the generated loader preamble to
check:
- Linux uses the versioned soname when provided.
- Non-versioned fallback remains available when no soversion is
supplied.
Example of the generated Linux loader behavior:
```python
_sover = '5.0'
_ext = 'so'
_lib_name = 'libz3.%s.%s' % (_ext, _sover) if sys.platform.startswith('linux') and _sover else 'libz3.%s' % _ext
_lib = ctypes.CDLL(_lib_name)
```

On Windows, to build Z3, you should executed the following command
in the Z3 root directory at the Visual Studio Command Prompt
msbuild /p:configuration=external
If you are using a 64-bit Python interpreter, you should use
msbuild /p:configuration=external /p:platform=x64
On Linux and macOS, you must install python bindings, before trying example.py.
To install python on Linux and macOS, you should execute the following
command in the Z3 root directory
sudo make install-z3py
