nano Portable Executable (nPE) file format
From nf-interpreter created by cw2 : nanoframework/nf-interpreter#40
Based on NETMF's PE, but without its obsolete/unused features. Planned modifications:
- Follows ECMA-335 specification for metadata tables,
- Extending metadata tables is needed to support generics
- No padding information, always aligned to 32-bit boundary (even on the disk),
- No endianness information - handled on the PC side (?)

- [x] Does Roslyn provide extensibility point for a custom assembly emitter?
- [ ] If yes, implement Roslyn extension to produce nPE files
- [x] If not, implement managed tool to transform .NET dll into nPE (with MSBuild task wrapper?)
- [x] Update assembly loader C++ structures and functionality
- [x] Unit tests

Jose,
I’m still active. I haven’t had much time lately but plan on getting back to nF soon. The hard part will be to convince Christophe to become enthused again.

@josesimoes and @StephenCardinale looking at old issues to clean a bit things. Is this one still active? It's 3.5 years old ;-)
Yes. Most of this will be cleared with the ongoing work so hopefully we'll be able to close this soon.
