Currently tools.deps does not support jars that package their own native libraries.

A form of this works from leiningen and java.
Here is a good chunk of the leiningen code to do this:
https://github.com/technomancy/leiningen/blob/master/leiningen-core/src/leiningen/core/classpath.clj
A lot of java software does this:
1. They try to load the library from the system if possible.
2. Failing that, they extract the library included in the jar to a temporary location and try to load this.
This, I believe, is the best pathway although it is somewhat outside the purview of tools.deps; perhaps there could be a companion library?
