LVM2APP_ABINAME is just a variable name I picked, 2.1 comes from
the SOVERSION

$ objdump -x /usr/lib/liblvm2app.so | grep SONAME
  SONAME               liblvm2app.so.2.1

I guess only upstream can answer that sufficiently.
What I did is, I generated symbols files for
2.02.54 and 2.02.60 (latest upstream version) and compared them. There were no
changes. This is of course not a perfect measurement for how stable the ABI is,
but it is at least not a bad indicator either.
