      Currently, the way Snappy is packaged results in multiple copies of the snappy64.dll being included in the nuget package (see image).

      Using more modern packaging strategies (i.e. leveraging content/contentFiles or runtime) should reduce redundant copies by at least one.

      Research will likely be needed because the official documentation is currently somewhat unsatisfactory (see https://github.com/NuGet/Home/issues/6645 and https://github.com/NuGet/Home/issues/8623). A preliminary scan of the literature suggests that we may even be able to simply use DllImport instead of using our current LibraryLoader approach, which would simplify the codebase.
