Module bootstrap::utils::shared_helpers

This module serves two purposes: 1. It is part of the utils module and used in other parts of bootstrap. 2. It is embedded inside bootstrap shims to avoid a dependency on the bootstrap library. Therefore, this module should never use any other bootstrap module. This reduces binary size and improves compilation time by minimizing linking time.
