They don't. The libtool manual goes on attempting to explain
"-version-number" with C:R:A, though it could have been a lot easier
to just say "it copies the values as-is to the file suffix".

build: restore -version-info
Commit v6.13~7 accidentally swapped "-version-info" with
"-version-number". Because "-version-number" takes the values
"FIRST:AGE:REV", which is different from "-version-info
CURRENT:REV:AGE", libipset.so.3 was emitted.
Restore using "-version-info" and continue to use 3 as the "FIRST"
interface (instead of 2), because it was declared that way in
ipset-6.13.
Also note that the version names in libipset.map generally are not
supposed to follow SO versions, but the program version):
IPSET_6.13 {...}.
