I chose to rename the netcdf-cxx-legacy library package to
libnetcdfc++4, that matches the SONAME and keeps the package name as it
is with the existing package.

We only need to add Breaks/Replaces on the << 4.2 version because the
library is now built from a different source package.

It's probably a good idea to improve the package description synopsis to
include -3 explicitly.

Kind Regards,
