Subject: [PATCH] lib/internal/modules/cjs/loader.js: adjust default path to
 search modules

NPM installs modules in /usr/lib/node_modules/, but by default NodeJS
searches for them only in /usr/lib/node/. We could also set the
NODE_PATH environment variable, but it is more convienient to have
NodeJS configured by default to find modules where they are installed.

This issue is discussed at
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15636367/nodejs-require-a-global-module-package.
