Main value of using PROPERTIES VERSION over OUTPUT_NAME is that CMake handles
structuring the filename correctly for the target OS for you (e.g.
<name>-<version>.dll for Windows and Midipix, lib<name>.<version>.dylib for
macOS, lib<name>.so.<version> for Linux/BSD, etc.). My understanding is that
OUTPUT_NAME turns all that logic off.
