If the library version is not specified, meson installs the shared object using only the soversion, and this causes ldconfig to emit a warning that the shared object is not a symlink. Specifying a version that matches the project version means that version is used for the shared object, and the soversion-named file is then a symilnk to that, which is common across other libraries, and avoids the warning from ldconfig.
