      Passing the path to the libmongocrypt library (.dll/.so/.dylib) instead of crypt_shared results in an error, but does not help identify the issue.

      Here is an example:

      auto_encryption_opts = AutoEncryptionOpts(
    kms_providers, key_vault_namespace,
    # `crypt_shared_lib_path` should be the path to crypt shared (mongo_crypt_v1.dylib), not libmongocrypt!
    crypt_shared_lib_path="/Users/kevin.albertson/code/c-bootstrap/install/libmongocrypt-1.12.0/lib/libmongocrypt.dylib"
)

# Raises error:
# A crypt_shared override path was specified [/Users/kevin.albertson/code/c-bootstrap/install/libmongocrypt-1.12.0/lib/libmongocrypt.dylib], but we failed to open a dynamic library at that location. Load error: [(null)]
client = MongoClient(auto_encryption_opts=auto_encryption_opts)

      If attempting to load fails, consider trying to load a known libmongocrypt symbol. Then return an error like "Passed path to libmongocrypt, but need path to crypt_shared".
