With this patch, both GL and GLESv2 renderer info can be got successfully now.
But this seems a little tricky, and in this case the dispatch table of GLESv2
is also used for OpenGL/GLX context. I am curious why "dlclose(gles2_handle);"
didn't clean libGLESv2.so out of the address space?

By the way, because I want to make my application independent of both libGL and
libGLESv2, I cannot link it directly to libGL.so or libGLESv2.so.

Hmm... resonable
