Due to a misunderstanding, I was not aware of this PR when I started implementing the same basic idea. However, this PR did also suffer from a number of problems, most importantly doing dlopen() before the fork() which protects the vtest-core against the tests going off the rails. The committed version also has an autodiscovery facility, so users, in the normal case, will not have to think about proper -E arguments. |

This is the groundwork to add vtc commands at runtime, as required for making it possibly to use an externally packaged vtest in vinyl-cache.
The first commit adds dynamic registration of top level commands: Rather than using a constant array of commands, we maintain a dynamic array to which registered commands are appended.
The second commit adds the minimal
dlopen()scaffolding to load extensions and adds a demo-extension calledfoowhich adds a command by the same name.Ref: varnishcache/varnish-cache#4398
