Load a dynamic library and return a handle to it.

function LoadLibrary(  |

):TLibHandle;  | 
const Name: UnicodeString  | 
):TLibHandle;  | 
LoadLibrary loads a dynamic library in file Name and returns a handle to it. If the library cannot be loaded, NilHandle is returned.
No assumptions should be made about the location of the loaded library if a relative pathname is specified. The behaviour is dependent on the platform. Therefore it is best to specify an absolute pathname if possible.
On error, NilHandle is returned.
