Slightly different than kmod_module_new_from_lookup(): it doesn't
consider aliases, only module names. This is useful for cases we want to
force a tool to handle something as the module name, without trying to
interpret it as an alias.

+ *
+ * Lookup by module name, without considering possible aliases. This is similar
+ * to kmod_module_new_from_lookup(), but don't consider as source indexes and

+ *
+ * The search order is: 1. module names in modules.dep index;
+ * 2. builtin indexes from kernel.
+ *
+ * The initial refcount is 1, and needs to be decremented to release the
+ * resources of the kmod_module. Since libkmod keeps track of all

+ * not unref @ctx before all the desired operations with the returned list are
+ * completed.
+ *
+ * Returns: 0 on success or < 0 otherwise. It fails if any of the lookup
+ * methods failed, which is basically due to memory allocation failure. If
