Add a small paragraph to the Shared Libraries section, discouraging the usage of globs where they might cause unintended problems.

This is the first time I've used asciidoc, so feel free to fix any markup issues. Rendered locally it looked fine, though.

I would probably use SONAME (in upper case)

also unless people do weird things, it will be reflected in file name (because we run brp-ldconfig which ensures that the files which match soname are created).

Apart from few comments inline, lgtm ;)
