You are correct, 5-2-6 bans all casts to/from function pointer types.
MISRA C++ only considers the language as defined by the C++ standard. GetProcAddress and dlsym are from operating system specific libraries (Windows and Linux), so any special treatment of them is outside the scope of this document.
However, their use can be addressed by raising a deviation. For further guidance, see the MISRA Compliance document – in effect the review and document solution you propose.
