Why is jl_init not doing the right thing here?

jl_init has a hard-coded relative path that is set during the build process from source. The whole relative path thing is awkward, we should just specify the two paths we need to initialize Julia directly.

The point is, where do we get the second path? If julia knows the correct path, it should use this path in jl_init. And if julia doesn't know the path, then the sysimg is broken for julia itself and should be fixed there.
