replace dynamic library module with libloading This PR deletes the `rustc_metadata::dynamic_lib` module in favor of the popular and better tested [`libloading` crate](https://github.com/nagisa/rust_libloading/). We don't benefit from `libloading`'s symbol lifetimes since we end up leaking the loaded library in all cases, but the call-sites look much nicer by improving error handling and abstracting away some transmutes. We also can remove `rustc_metadata`'s direct dependencies on `libc` and `winapi`. This PR also adds an exception for `libloading` (and its license) to tidy, so this will need sign-off from the compiler team. |
