Disallow require() expressions which import extraneous modules (n/no-extraneous-require)

💼 This rule is enabled in the following configs: 🟢 recommended-module, ✅ recommended-script.

If a require()'s target is extraneous (it's not listed in your package.json), the program may work locally but can break after dependencies are re-installed. This can cause issues for your team/contributors. If a declaration source is extraneous yet consistently works for you and your team, it might be a transitive dependency (a dependency of another dependency). Transitive dependencies should still be added as an explicit dependency in your package.json to avoid the risk of a dependency potentially changing or removing the transitive dependency.

Additionally, the transitive dependency could be a dev dependency, meaning your code could work in development but not in production.

This rule disallows require() of extraneous modules.
