> Right now `simengine` is implemented as an executable, invoked through `libcrexec` that implements the C/R API. Since the programmatic C/R API should be the main interface, any exec API is redundant; let's turn `simengine` into shared (dynamic) library implementing the API on its own.
>
> The `pauseengine` does not need to exist on its own; this can be only an option `pause=true` for `simengine`. The implementation is Linux only (and it is out of scope to fill in a non-Linux implementation - the `pause` option can be just excluded in non-Linux `libsimengine`).
>
> We expect to turn `libcrexec` + `criuengine` into `libcriuengine` in a follow up (not as part of this issue).
