   Thanks @apeskov . This is an important step. Would be great if we can think about de-couple further to reverse the dependency. (e.g. make the macho depend on libtvm as a plugin).
   
   The main rationale is that depending on the license we may not want to directly make this as a submodule(which means we will package and distribute the source by default and there might be some license complications).
   
   Here is an idea:
   - We create another plugin module that depends on libtvm which registers an overrided version of so loader.
   - see https://github.com/apache/tvm/blob/main/src/runtime/dso_library.cc#L93
   - We can then run a plugin that registers the new loader back to TVM. see an example here https://github.com/apache/tvm/tree/main/apps/extension
   
   This way we do not need to hijack the dso library
