Log:<br>
Windows: Use GetModuleHandleEx instead of LoadLibrary<br>
<br>
We were using an anti-pattern of:<br>
 - LoadLibrary<br>
 - GetProcAddress<br>
 - FreeLibrary<br>
<br>
This is problematic because of several reasons:<br>
 - We are holding on to pointers into a library we just unloaded.<br>
 - Calling LoadLibrary results in an increase in the reference count of<br>
   the library in question and any libraries that it depends on and<br>
   so-on and so-forth.  This is none too quick.<br>
<br>
Instead, use GetModuleHandleEx with GET_MODULE_HANDLE_EX_FLAG_PIN.  This<br>
is done because because we didn't bring the reference for the library<br>
into existence and therefor shouldn't count on it being around later.<br>
