Windows: Use GetModuleHandleEx instead of LoadLibrary
We were using an anti-pattern of: - LoadLibrary - GetProcAddress - FreeLibrary This is problematic because of several reasons: - We are holding on to pointers into a library we just unloaded. - Calling LoadLibrary results in an increase in the reference count of the library in question and any libraries that it depends on and so-on and so-forth. This is none too quick. Instead, use GetModuleHandleEx with GET_MODULE_HANDLE_EX_FLAG_PIN. This is done because because we didn't bring the reference for the library into existence and therefor shouldn't count on it being around later. llvm-svn: 192550
