Break apart erlang:load_module/2 into two separate BIFs
Introduce two new BIFs, erlang:prepare_loading/2 and erlang:finish_loading/1, and re-implement erlang:load_module/2 in Erlang code. We have two reasons for doing this: * To facilitate suspending a process if another process is already doing code loading. * In the future, we can implement parallel and atomic loading of several modules. Atomic loading works except for modules with on_load handlers. Because of that issue, erlang:finish_loading/2 will currently only accept a list with a single magic binary.
