module: support custom paths to require.resolve()
I originally wrote this for https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/5963, but didn't open a PR. Today, it was requested again in https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/16389, so I thought I'd open a PR. I'm not sure how it will be received.
This PR supports passing custom paths to require.resolve()
. The custom paths can replace the default paths, be prepended to the default paths, or be appended to the default paths. All of the functionality is isolated to a single if
statement, so the impact on code that doesn't use this feature should be extremely minimal.
