.cma files are metadata for bytecode static linking.

.cmxa files are metadata for native code static linking.

.cmxs files are renamed *.so files and can be used for fully dynamic
linking of OCaml native code.

Other issues make it difficult to ship dynamically linked binaries of
pure OCaml code, so in practice *.cmxs are only used for dlopen-style
dynamic loading.
