Method LoadFromAssemblyNameUsingPath

LoadFromAssemblyNameUsingPath(AssemblyLoadContext, String)

Loads an assembly by first retrieving it's AssemblyName from the given path. If the assembly has not already been loaded into the context and cannot be resolved by name, the assembly is then directly loaded from the provided path. This avoids loading an assembly of the same name again if it has already been loaded before.
