It's just a rebase of #2114 , since the original pull requests are closed, I thought might just rebase and create a new one for reviewing, @emilio.

Supporting for dynamic loading can be a useful feature when one need to found library in a dynamic way(i.e. choose between libraries with compatible ABI), and supporting loading static variable is a important feature in this feature.

I removed the get_var prefix because afaict it's not necessary, and I made it so that @pradt2 and you are both attributed authorship.
