JDK-8313616 added the support of loading library members on AIX in os::dll_load in JDK 22. On AIX, is a shared object a member object loaded from `libname.a(libname.so)`? If so, changing `mapLibraryName` implementation seems to be a proper fix. If you want to load a specific version, it should call `loadLibrary("libclang.a(libclang.so.16)")` instead.
As @jaikiran suggests, `loadLibraryOnlyIfPresent()` should return false for AIX as the file does not exist. The library implementation may need to adjust as the current implementation uses a file path name.
