About dlclose in rtl

[xuelin.tian at qkmtech.com]

Sure, this makes sense. We need to take care of our own heap, tasks, and so on.
Does dlopen APIs in rtems reset or delete static variables in the same xxx.rap? In linux, dlopen would reset the static variables unless "RTLD_NODELETE" is specified.

The dlclose will remove the resources allocated by the RTL link editor when the
code was loaded and nothing else. Any resources such as object, heap, tasks, or
hooks created by the code remain. It is the responsibility of the xxx.rap code
to make sure it has cleaned up and stopped any tasks etc before dlclose is called.
