### Hooks

#### <code>resolve</code> hook

* Returns: {Object}
* `url` {string}

The `resolve` hook returns the resolved file URL for a given module specifier
and parent URL. The module specifier is the string in an `import` statement or
`import()` expression, and the parent URL is the URL of the module that imported

Justification for this change is as follows.

In strict null checking mode, the null and undefined values are not in the domain of every type and are only assignable to themselves and any (the one exception being that undefined is also assignable to void).

#### <code>getFormat</code> hook
#### `getFormat(url, context, defaultGetFormat)`

* `url` {string}

* Returns: {Object}
* `format` {string}

The `getFormat` hook provides a way to define a custom method of determining how
a URL should be interpreted. The `format` returned also affects what the
acceptable forms of source values are for a module when parsing. This can be one
of the following:

| `format` | Description | Acceptable Types For `source` Returned by `getSource` or `transformSource` |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `'builtin'` | Load a Node.js builtin module | Not applicable |
| `'commonjs'` | Load a Node.js CommonJS module | Not applicable |
| `'json'` | Load a JSON file | { [ArrayBuffer][], [string][], [TypedArray][] } |
| `'module'` | Load an ES module | { [ArrayBuffer][], [string][], [TypedArray][] } |
| `'wasm'` | Load a WebAssembly module | { [ArrayBuffer][], [string][], [TypedArray][] } |
| `format` | Description | Acceptable Types For `source` Returned by `getSource` or `transformSource` |
| ------------ | ------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `'builtin'` | Load a Node.js builtin module | Not applicable |
| `'commonjs'` | Load a Node.js CommonJS module | Not applicable |
| `'json'` | Load a JSON file | { [`string`][], [`ArrayBuffer`][], [`TypedArray`][] } |
| `'module'` | Load an ES module | { [`string`][], [`ArrayBuffer`][], [`TypedArray`][] } |
| `'wasm'` | Load a WebAssembly module | { [`ArrayBuffer`][], [`TypedArray`][] } |

Note: These types all correspond to classes defined in ECMAScript.

* The specific [ArrayBuffer][] object is a [SharedArrayBuffer][].
* The specific [string][] object is not the class constructor, but an instance.
* The specific [TypedArray][] object is a [Uint8Array][].
* The specific [`ArrayBuffer`][] object is a [`SharedArrayBuffer`][].
* The specific [`TypedArray`][] object is a [`Uint8Array`][].

Note: If the source value of a text-based format (i.e., `'json'`, `'module'`) is
not a string, it will be converted to a string using [`util.TextDecoder`][].

* Returns: {string}

Sometimes it can be necessary to run some code inside of the same global scope
that the application will run in. This hook allows to return a string that will
be ran as sloppy-mode script on startup.
