Adding BootLoader.loadLibrary is okay but we should try to keep method 
description consistent with the other methods in this class. Also I 
think we can clean up the SM path while we are there.

Several of the NIO classes have been changed to the following, which 
looks a bit odd

jdk.internal.loader.BootLoader.loadLibrary("net");
jdk.internal.loader.BootLoader.loadLibrary("nio");

I see this has been pushed so I'll create a follow-on issue for the 
cleanups.
