    rts: Make addDLL a wrapper around loadNativeObj · b663c9e0
    Rodrigo Mesquita authored and Andreas Klebinger's avatar Andreas Klebinger committed 
    Rewrite the implementation of `addDLL` as a wrapper around the more
principled `loadNativeObj` rts linker function. The latter should be
preferred while the former is preserved for backwards compatibility.

`loadNativeObj` was previously only available on ELF platforms, so this
commit further refactors the rts linker to transform loadNativeObj_ELF
into loadNativeObj_POSIX, which is available in ELF and MachO platforms.

The refactor made it possible to remove the `dl_mutex` mutex in favour
of always using `linker_mutex` (rather than a combination of both).

Lastly, we implement `loadNativeObj` for Windows too.

(cherry picked from commit dcfaa190)
