Description

The utility tools/update_package_abis.sh has not been updated since we added Fedora packaging. In particular, it does not check/update the rpm/mir.spec

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the script `tools/update package abis.sh` and understand its current logic. Add a step to update the `rpm/mir.spec` file with the new ABI version. Ensure the script handles both Debian and Fedora packaging correctly.
