src: add require transform pipeline
This feature simply passes module text content and filename through a transformer function which could be used for things like applying AST transforms to the source before it is compiled.
This is just an idea I'm playing with, I could use some feedback. Is this something people want? Is this a reasonable approach?
The ability to intercept the text content would make it easier to do several things like transpiling code, injecting code coverage hooks or applying custom instrumentation.
