It contains all the necessary headers for the test subpackage
mariadb-connector-c-test.
These headers re used only during testing and thus would be unnecessary
clutter inside
libdir itself. I don't think dynamic linking is necessary in this situation
because the only package
that interacts with the so file is the subpackage and the so file is only
linked to its test files.
