This PR converts all of our stdlib JLLs to be "lazy" JLLs, which provides a nice improvement to startup latency, and reduces overall memory footprint by not loading libraries that are never called.

Example timings:

# current master
$ hyperfine -w 1 -r 20 ./julia
Benchmark 1: ./julia
  Time (mean ± σ):     152.2 ms ±   1.8 ms    [User: 272.5 ms, System: 86.7 ms]
  Range (min … max):   149.3 ms … 155.3 ms    20 runs

# this PR
$ hyperfine -w 1 -r 20 ./julia
Benchmark 1: ./julia
  Time (mean ± σ):     122.4 ms ±   2.3 ms    [User: 86.7 ms, System: 33.2 ms]
  Range (min … max):   119.6 ms … 130.4 ms    20 runs

what's the rss difference?

Showcase example of using LazyLibrary in shipped JLLs
7df0d9c 
This converts the following JLLs to LazyLibrary APIs:

* LibCURL_jll
* LibSSH2_jll
* MbedTLS_jll
* OpenBLAS_jll
* libblastrampoline_jll
* nghttp2_jll

It also introduces a new precompilation statement for a basic matrix
multiplciation to ensure that TTFMM (time to first matmul) remains
excellent.

what's the rss difference?

Not much, 2 MB out of 190 MB. I'm a little surprised by that, but I think it's likely because most of the pages we're eliminating here are shared.

Lazy base JLLs
12269e0 
This implements lazy libraries for the three potentially-lazy libraries
needed by Base, `PCRE2_jll`, `GMP_jll` and `MPFR_jll`.  Because these
libraries are needed by bootstrap (and in the case of `PCRE2`, needed by
Julia's own initialization) we have to go through some extra work to get
them to properly load lazily.

We move the `LazyLibraryPath` definition to be much earlier in the
bootstrap process and use this path to load e.g. `GMP` and `MPFR` during
bootstrap, but then replace that path with a `LazyLibrary` after
bootstrap has finished.  This provides a mechanism for loading things
before e.g. `dlopen()` has been defined.

This is for stdlib JLLs only, right? Still great, but the idea would translate to all JLLs? Easy to extend that way, and might also make for nice speedup? Each one is seemingly usually very cheap, but sometimes many used, so add up. I was also (alternatively) thinking parallel loading of JLLs, seems doable, probably easier than for non-JLL.

Is this too large to backport? Not right away, but ion time for 1.10?

Yes, that's the idea, but we need more information than exists in JLLs right now; we need to encode the dependency graph of each library on every other library.

I don't think this is a huge feature, and my time to work on it post-JuliaCon will be limited, so I would expect it in 1.11.
