compiler: add import statement support for dynamic extensions
Utilize the new I_DYNLINK vm opcode to support import statements referring to dynamic extension modules. During compilation, the compiler will try to infer the type of the imported module from the resolved file path; if it ends with `.so`, the module is assumed to by a dynamic extension and loading/binding of the module is deferred to runtime using I_DYNLINK opcodes. Additionally, the `-c` cli option gained support for a new compiler flag `dynlink=...` which allows forcing a particular module name expression to be treated as dynamic extension. This is useful to e.g. force resolving `import { x } from "foo"` to a dynamic extension `foo.so` loaded at runtime even if a plain `foo.uc` exists in the search path during compilation or if no such module is available at build time.
