Add hot function reload for C procedures

This patch adds ability to reload C procedures on the fly without
downtime. To achive that, Tarantool loads a new copy of shared
library and starts routing all new request to the new version.
The previous version remains active until all started calls
are finished. All shared libraries are loaded with RTLD_LOCAL,
therefore two or more copies can co-exist without any problems.
From now box loads all external modules via an unique symlink to
avoid caching inside dlopen().

If one of some module function is reloaded then all other functions
from this module will be reloaded.

Reviewed and heavily patched by Roman Tsisyk.
