erasure-code: jerasure preloads the plugin variant
The variant selection depending on the available CPU features is
encapsulated in a helper. The helper is used in the factory() method and
in the load() method.
The factory() method may load a variant that is not the default, for
benchmark purposes. Such a variant is not preloaded by the load() method
and upgrading while running may be problematic. However, running with a
non standard variant is used for benchmarking and upgrades in this
context are not a concern.
