[17818] Bug #564209: Improved debuggability for module loading

gnucash-2.2.7 doesn't (IMHO) log enough (any?) information about failures to
load optional modules. It was a bit of work to debug a recent problem (#564033)
and I ended up tweaking gnc_module_load_common() a bit to coax the error
messages out. I slightly reorganized the code in this function to accomplish
two things:

1. Make the logic clearer to someone new to the code (i.e., me)
2. If an optional module is found, log any errors in loading it

I tried to maintain the original spirit of not squawking too much about unfound
optional modules while still generating messages about legitimate problems.

Patch by G. Paul Ziemba.
