treewide: fix dangling SONAME symlinks when using ABI_VERSION

A previous commit attempted to introduce proper SONAME symlinks for
packages utilizing ABI_VERSION. However, it incorrectly copied only
the symlink without the underlying physical library file, resulting
in broken packages with dangling symlinks.

Before:
```
tar -Oxzf bin/packages/arm_cortex-a9_vfpv3-d16/packages/oniguruma_6.9.9-r1_arm_cortex-a9_vfpv3-d16.ipk ./data.tar.gz | tar -tzvf -
drwxr-xr-x  0 0      0           0 Feb  5  2024 ./
drwxr-xr-x  0 0      0           0 Feb  5  2024 ./usr/
drwxr-xr-x  0 0      0           0 Feb  5  2024 ./usr/lib/
lrwxrwxrwx  0 0      0           0 Feb  5  2024 ./usr/lib/libonig.so.5 -> libonig.so.5.4.0
```

After:
```
tar -Oxzf bin/packages/arm_cortex-a9_vfpv3-d16/packages/oniguruma_6.9.9-r1_arm_cortex-a9_vfpv3-d16.ipk ./data.tar.gz | tar -tzvf -
drwxr-xr-x  0 0      0           0 Feb  5  2024 ./
drwxr-xr-x  0 0      0           0 Feb  5  2024 ./usr/
drwxr-xr-x  0 0      0           0 Feb  5  2024 ./usr/lib/
lrwxrwxrwx  0 0      0           0 Feb  5  2024 ./usr/lib/libonig.so.5 -> libonig.so.5.4.0
-rwxr-xr-x  0 0      0      526493 Feb  5  2024 ./usr/lib/libonig.so.5.4.0
```

This properly standardizes shared library packaging, prevents shipping
duplicate full-sized files (as seen previously in packages like libre2),
and aligns the packages feed with core OpenWrt practices.
As you could see in the previous commit (see it in the ``Fixes`` tag):
