Add .so files!

MySQL AB doesn't provide any shared libraries part
of the MySQL server packages, except for RPMs and
Windows. This will soon be addressed.

In the cluster packages there is a static library

  libndbclient.a

This librare is compiled position independent, i.e.
should be usable in most situations compiling client
source to link with the cluster client library.

The exception is when you have a precompiled binary
that requires the "libndbclient.so" shared library.
