Description Sven Gothel 2025-06-21 11:15:17 CEST 
NativeLibrary's 'enumerateLibraryPaths' system search 
only uses the library basename to utilize the OS's search algorithm.

This is not sufficient for all OS, e.g. Windows 10.
Example: Prepend a custom Mesa3D OpenGL library to the environment variable PATH.

Solution is to explicitly search in all directories of the system environment variable:
- Windows: PATH
- MacOS: DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
- Unix: LD_LIBRARY_PATH

before using the plain basename.
