> This patch overhauls the library loading mechanism used by the Foreign Linker API. We realized that, while handy, the *default* lookup abstraction (`LibraryLookup::ofDefault`) was behaving inconsistentlt across platforms.
>
> This patch replaces `LibraryLookup` with a simpler `SymbolLookup` abstraction, a functional interface. Crucially, `SymbolLookup` does not concern with library loading, only symbol lookup. For this reason, two factories are added:
>
> * `SymbolLookup::loaderLookup` - which obtains a lookup that can be used to lookup symbols in libraries loaded by current loader
> * `CLinker::systemLookup` - a more stable replacement for the *default* lookup, which looks for symbols in libc.so (or its equivalent in other platforms). The contents of this lookup are unspecified.
>
> Both factories are *restricted*, so they can only be called when `--enable-native-access` is set.
