I was thinking of doing something simple, with nettle_* symbols going
into the supported ABI (symbol version NETTLE_@LIBNETTLE_MAJOR@), and
all _nettle_* symbols getting symbol version
NETTLE_@LIBNETTLE_MAJOR@_@LIBNETTLE_MINOR@, which explicitly makes them
*not* binary compatible between minor versions.

I think it's helpful that ABI status corresponds to the names used in
the source and header files, both for maintenance and for user
documentation.

What do you think? Are there any of the current _nettle_* symbols that
should be in the advertised API (and hence renamed)?

Regards,
/Niels
