Perform a single lookup of "plugin.Open" at the point where we set the
loaded flag for the context, then cache whether the result is nil, so
that we can consult this cached value later on (instead of having to
look up the symbol each time). This helps speed up the DynLinkingGo()
context method, which is called from within some very hot loops in the
linker (when linking 'hyperkube' from kubernetes, reduces total calls
to "sym.(*Symbols).ROLookup" from 6.5M to 4.3M)
