2016-02-25	code: Add functions that can load multiple modules	Björn Gustavsson
	Add functions to 'code' to allow loading of multiple modules at once. code:atomic_load(Modules) will load all modules at once, or fail having loaded none of them. Since we cannot guarantee the atomicity if there are modules with -on_load functions, the list of modules must not contain any modules with an -on_load function. Also, to make it possible to put an application into an inactive state for as short time as possible, also add code:prepare_loading/1 and code:finish_loading/1. They are used like this: {ok,Prepared} = code:prepare_loading(Modules) . . . ok = code:finish_loading(Prepared) code:ensure_modules_loaded/1 is useful as a pure optimization to ensure that modules that will be needed soon have indeed been loaded. It will not reload modules that have already been loaded and it will accept modules that have an on_load function. Therefore, it does not make sense to give any atomicity guarantees. I did consider overloading the existing code:ensure_loaded/1 function, but rejected it because the return value is very different. Having different forms of return values depending on the types of arguments is confusing.
