  1. Handle failure to call dlopen(NULL)

    See the inline comment for the explanation.
    
    I have been running into this bug on PyOxidizer when using
    Python distributions built against musl libc. For reference:
    
        $ ldd python/install/bin/python3.7m
             not a dynamic executable
    
        $ python/install/bin/python3.7m
        Python 3.7.7 (default, Apr  5 2020, 06:02:52)
        [Clang 9.0.1 ] on linux
        Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
        >>> import ctypes
        >>> ctypes.CDLL(None)
        Traceback (most recent call last):
          File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
          File "/home/gps/src/pyoxidizer.git/build/python_distributions/python.c1ffa330c730/python/install/lib/python3.7/ctypes/__init__.py", line 364, in __init__
            self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
        OSError: Dynamic loading not supported
    
    Interestingly, OSError is incomplete (possibly a CPython ctypes bug?):
    
        >>> try:
        ...     ctypes.CDLL(None)
        ... except OSError as e:
        ...     err = e
        ...
        >>> err
        OSError('Dynamic loading not supported')
        >>> err.errno
        None
        >>> err.strerror
        None
        >>> err.args
        ('Dynamic loading not supported',)
