Provide linker-like API for simple symbol lookups #3

Description

@PathogenDavid

Right now you have to manually search through individual archive members or ELF sections to discovery symbols for linker-like behaviors. This was fine when we only supported Windows-style .lib archives, but now that we support ELF it's kind-of annoying to deal with.

We should provide a simplified API where you can just shove static/dynamic/import libraries in and get a list of symbols out. We could also provide an API for "resolving" a symbol similar to what Biohazrd already does which would simplify more complicated scenarios like PhysX where we have to pre-resolve from static libraires for the purposes of defining an export list.
