I actually like SHARED more, because it's really is a generic
indicator of whether we are linking as static or shared library. The
fact that we are using that flag for symbol versioning is specific to
NEW_VERSION/OLD_VERSION macros, but SHARED itself can be later used
for some other static vs shared logic. But it's subjective matter, so
I won't insist.

I only have few minor nits, otherwise this looks good, thanks!

Nit: use :=, there is no need for expansions at later point.

I like that those projects that are building libbpf from sources as
submodule won't have to define anything to get correctly linked static
library!

Again, subjective, but CUR_VERSION or DEFAULT_VERSION name seems more
precise to me.

nit: is extra space after alias necessary?
