Mainly a missing portable way to find the library. *But* searching in
C<runtime/parrot/include> is working for current platforms, so we can
do the same for /library. We just need to abstract it a bit and put a
wrapper into the platforms file(s). It can get refined always and
gradually.

We would need a more general version of dynext.c:get_path() [1] that just
tests for existence of the file:

  STRING * Parrot_get_runtime_path(interp, file_type, filename)

or some such. File type is one of [dynamic/shared extension, include_file,
library] currently.

The searchorder should be configurable finally, for now current directory
and runtime/parrot/* should do it.

[1] and imcc/imcc.l:include_file()
