Here's the commit which added it to my working branch:

    https://github.com/mathstuf/CMake/commit/d4a2a23b9d500434e294ad2b8515731aeaee7c30

For the lazy, the commit message:

     Android: Support sonames on Android

     This is actually required because without it, the APK will be
     bundle up any library linking to a library without a SONAME with an
     absolute path.

I don't know about SOVERSION; the project I'm using it with[1] isn't
using it.
