Matthias Clasen 524ce69bcb Bump the version to 3.0.0
At the same time, change the library sonames for -3.0 to just -3.
This is necessary since the 2.99 releases installed libraries like
libgtk-3.0.so.0.9903.0, and we want to prevent the library version
number from jumping back. So 3.0 will have libgtk-3.so.0.0.0.

Release notes for 3.0
=====================
* GTK+ 3 is a major new version of GTK+, which is parallel installable
with GTK+ 2.x. For information about porting applications from GTK+ 2.x
to GTK+ 3, see the file:
docs/reference/gtk/html/migrating.html
Or online at:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/3.0/migrating.html
* Note that the library sonames in this release have been changed from
libgtk-3.0 and libgdk-3.0 to libgtk-3 and libgdk-3, to prevent the
library versions from going backwards, compared to the 2.90/91/99
releases. Applications will have to be recompiled.
