In ocsigen/js_of_ocaml#1641 it was pointed out that Gobview is trying to link dynamic library linking (Dynlink), which can (besides that issue) also increase Gobview size because Dynlink somehow includes OCaml compiler libraries.

This is completely unnecessary: the goblint-cil library doesn't use dynlink and findlib at all. Only some CIL executable uses those to detect Features at runtime (as opposed to linking them in with -linkall like we do). This PR splits the Feature module to avoid these dependencies.

Are there ambitions to merge this? It looks like it breaks OS X support?

I'll re-run the CI to see what the issue was, perhaps just some MacOS CI problem.

I think this should be done because it's silly for (parts of) the OCaml compiler be included when using goblint-cil. But this PR shouldn't be part of the SV-COMP-equivalent release anyway.
