Use native require.resolve when available

[nicolo-ribaudo]

This is the same as babel/babel#12439.
TL;DR we can use the native require.resolve in Node.js >= 8, and it's important to do so because Next.js breaks the resolve package.

I think a custom plugin was overkill here, so I just modified the code to use the native require.resolve when it supports the paths option.
