Having libmultiprocess version numbers should be helpful for:
- Backporting fixes for previous Bitcoin Core releases if we need to do that at some point (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/33439).
- Letting Bitcoin Core releases describe what libmultiprocess versions they are compatible with (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/33576)
- Letting code detect what version is used at compile-time or runtime, for logging, feature detection, error reporting, or other purposes.
