Module loader doesn't allow relative paths

[tillsanders]

I've been trying to implement my own module loader (simulating the behaviour of node) using setModuleLoader() and setModuleNormaliser(). The callback I wrote for setModuleNormaliser() gets two arguments:

1. base path of the current module
2. the literate string provided to the require method

Now, if the required path is relative (e.g. ./some-sub-module.js), I have no way of finding this required file because my callback only knows the base path of the current module, but not the path of the current file.

You should use the normaliser callback to map from module name to filepath, then you can interpret relative paths in subsequent calls correctly.

See https://gist.github.com/stesie/c9143b98355295420470 for a Node.js module loader implementation. (that at least can load .js files; fails on .json files though)
