Since other Emacs-Lisp specific keys are on the `C-h' key prefix
like `C-h f' and `C-h S', a key to find an Emacs-Lisp library
could find a place in the same `C-h' key prefix.

But I don't understand why it needs a new key - it already
works fine with 'C-x 4 f' and 'C-x 5 f' when point is on
the library name, then typing 'M-n' will get the library file.
