Make pre-loaded modules permanently sticky
Modules in the kernel, stdlib, and compiler applications are by
default "sticky", meaning that the code server will refuse to
re-load them.
The pre-loaded modules (those that are part of the run-time system
itself, such as 'erlang') are, however, not sticky. They used to be
sticky a long time ago when the pre-loaded modules were part of
the kernel application. Now they are part of the erts application.
Since re-loading a pre-loaded module can be catastrophic (especially
re-loading the 'erlang' module), the pre-loaded modules must be
sticky. Furthermore, it should not be allowed to unstick them.
The sticky_dir/1 test case in code_SUITE is never actually run and
is broken. Rewrite it.
