What is the feature?

There currently exists a load_function() API to load a symbol from a DLL. This should really be renamed to load_symbol(), since it also supports variables. So ideally we'd rename load_function() to load_symbol(), and have load_function() simply call load_symbol() for backward compatibility.

Desribe alternatives you have considered?
