shared_module: Add soname when used as a link target

Emit a detailed deprecation warning that explains what to do instead.
Also add a unittest.

```
DEPRECATION: target prog links against shared module mymod, which is incorrect.
             This will be an error in the future, so please use shared_library() for mymod instead.
             If shared_module() was used for mymod because it has references to undefined symbols,
             use shared_libary() with `override_options: ['b_lundef=false']` instead.
```

Fixes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/9492
