Holger Vogt 9a2d968577 When transferring boolean data over the ABI, keep them as boolean types, not integer
Replace the type of all boolean variables around the ABI by NG_BOOL.
NG_BOOL is typedefed to _Bool, when compiling shared ngspice. When
sharedspice.h is use externally NG_BOOL is typdefed to bool

Carsten Schoenert 48f2c2b875 configure.ac: Adding version string for LIB_NGSPICE_API
This isn't currently used but can be used in various places to
automatically provide the internal API version that is used.
Normally developers doesn't want to break the API by introducing a
version bump as this means the new library isn't backward compatible
any more.

E.g. the API version can be used to enhance the name of the library,
quite often libraries with an API version 0 don't add this version to
library name (like ngspice is doing this too right now).

Carsten Schoenert 61b5c0563b src/Makefile.am: Adopt used variables for lib versioning
A small adjustment so the configured ABI version from configure.ac will

Carsten Schoenert fec1a9a9c8 libtool: Adding helping content for API versioning
Doing the libtool versioning right can be a bit tedious. Especially the
correct handling of the various versions for the libtool .so naming is
difficult to understand if this part isn't done often.

To improve the API versioning adding some helping text what the various
version number are intended for and how to handle these within the
life cycle and development of the Ngspice project.

Basically libtool uses 'current', 'revision' and 'age' to version a
library.
Here a short outline how to do the libtool versioning:

 Only bug fixing did happen, no new symbols were added, the new library
 provide the exact amount and behaviour of the existing symbols.

 --> Increase the 'revision' by 1 (c:r+1:a)

 New symbols were added, the behaviour of the existing symbols doesn't
 have changed.

 --> Increase the 'age' by 1, set 'revision' to 0 (c:r=0,a+1)

 Existing symbols behave now different or existing symbols were removed.

 --> Increase 'current' by 1, set 'revison' to 0, set 'age' to 0 (c+1,r=0,a=0)
 !!!Note!!!
 The ABI version is also affected by this (needs a bump too, the library
 isn't backward compatible any more.

compared with previous releases.
