Summary: Please document provide-library

Initial Comment:
Libraries can be loaded by two mechanisms: (require-
library) or (load). In environments where the user 
can't control the classpath (such as some J2EE 
containers), as well as to force reloading of modified 
libraries, (load) is necessary.

Unfortunately, (load) doesn't "provide" a library (and 
it can't -- because it can't deduce the standard 
library name from the path). This is where (provide-
library) helps.

Therefore, please bring provide-library in the open by 
documenting it.
