Start npm/rfcs#486. This implements $disable-write-resolves without
creating an option. Next I'll figure out how to plumb a npm config
option thru to shrinkwrap.

Implement `$disable-write-resolves` described in npm/rfcs#486.  I named
the option `omitLockfileRegistryResolved` but that can be changed later.

Put simply, this option causes npm to create lock files without a
`resolved` key for registry dependencies forcing npm to use the current
configured registry and resolve package tarball urls on install. This
fixes install errors when users change registries and the recorded
resolved url is incorrect.

This option causes slower installs because npm must fetch each packages
manifest to find the tarball url, but it's the most comprehensive
solution to this problem. Options like recording always the default
registry, or recording a special 'current registry' sigil will break if
registries host tarballs at different paths. For example
`${REGISTRY}/npm/-/npm-8.3.0.tgz` only works if all registries host
tarballs at `npm/-/npm-8.3.0.tgz`.
Create shrinkwrap files with resolved urls modified to replace the
configured registry with the default registry,
https://registry.npmjs.org.

The default registry is a magic value meaning the current registry, so
recording resolved with the default registry allows users to switch to a
different registry without removing their lockfile. The path portion of
the acutal resolved url is preserved so this trick only works when the
different registries host tarballs at the same relative paths. It's
faster than the omitLockfileRegistryResolved option because npm doesn't
need to fetch each pacument to resolve the tarball url.
