esm: fix hook mistypes and links to types
Prior to this commit, the custom loader hooks were: * missing the Node.js API ref docs types * missing the function signature from their sections * linking directly to the specification (not customary) * had an inconsistent non-nullable JSDoc promise return * had JSDoc object properties that weren't alpha-sorted * designated set of non-nullable types when single was fine Notes: https://www.typescriptlang.org/play/index.html?strictNullChecks=true&useJavaScript=true#code/PQKhCgAIUgBAHAhgJ0QW0gbwM4BdkCWAdgOYC+k28ApgMYEBmB1yUMCK6WmbkftAeyIATArgJDsALkgBCAILJUATwA8eQqQB8AGl58kyakVwBVAEoAZGbIAUG4iUgAfSAFcR1JkWrCAlHrQkGQUgibUAB64vByoGJgAYh604kIUwl6IbgA2uObU2ALZAG7UMUa4bshE2FgACsgCaATY1KqY7sjZMg6kwVpkbMDgkfACyLiQiNjKRLSQDMmpRJBGhSXU9jT0TCw6kGG4kbj7GQxZufnrpX5YUAeSkx2GxmZWkAC8kEQ52cGfD3CUQA3PdGJBbABZRC4AAWADpUCImrZblpIAAGeEAVluHWAwEgAGUmtRAaJlvD7nwCZAEuNKKTIAzENk-lQ6IxmMhsKcBIy0GTaG48E1INkBCQCPMGAy1kVio4qXwaYT5NkAO6IZS1CpVFaIFYCABGACs6JMBAxIHCybLkPEqt1IOp8I4BsqVXrqncVSqnTIXiYLJZIAB+al+77UDWQENbTm7ZD7INvSx+eGwozWqSRv0+WPxjk7bkZrNeQIqsigviDPjgqEwhFI4Qo26qTE4vGQWnyIgCW3IcliCRET2qyAAdVhxgOrOyjkgAAMzhc8gUFdQl-tbVNkCQ3IKTLVaIbIMayWgBKJdsJ4ZAAJIrOEtSO00+tSBiADktUQwlEPpDQHGch2KVk3DtBk0BhWhYUXMIKVHVlIFGcZcGwcdVmoSofVXHJ12uTZiy5PZfSjeFKMOY5Kz9RCR0kGQAG1KPhaiojYoQkMkfZv2AwcAFp6OWb8AF1aOCPwa2Ce5aQAES8FgbX5AA5a9qHhU1antKY2WZQdKG2UieU9b0Vnwy4Nw2BMSzI9iTkgCzCM3KTwDIIA https://closure-compiler.appspot.com/home#code%3D%252F%252F%2520%253D%253DClosureCompiler%253D%253D%250A%252F%252F%2520%2540compilation_level%2520ADVANCED_OPTIMIZATIONS%250A%252F%252F%2520%2540warning_level%2520VERBOSE%250A%252F%252F%2520%2540jscomp_error%2520strictCheckTypes%250A%252F%252F%2520%2540language_out%2520ECMASCRIPT_NEXT%250A%252F%252F%2520%2540checks_only%250A%252F%252F%2520%253D%253D%252FClosureCompiler%253D%253D%250A%250A%252F**%250A%2520*%2520%2540param%2520%257Bstring%257D%2520specifier%250A%2520*%2520%2540param%2520%257B%257B%250A%2520*%2520%2520%2520conditions%253A%2520!Array%253Cstring%253E%252C%250A%2520*%2520%2520%2520parentURL%253A%2520!(string%2520%257C%2520undefined)%252C%250A%2520*%2520%257D%257D%2520context%250A%2520*%2520%2540param%2520%257BFunction%257D%2520defaultResolve%250A%2520*%2520%2540returns%2520%257BPromise%253C%257B%2520url%253A%2520string%2520%257D%253E%257D%250A%2520*%252F%250Aexport%2520async%2520function%2520resolve(specifier%252C%2520context%252C%2520defaultResolve)%2520%257B%250A%2520%2520const%2520%257B%2520parentURL%2520%253D%2520null%2520%257D%2520%253D%2520context%253B%250A%2520%2520if%2520(Math.random()%2520%253E%25200.5)%2520%257B%2520%252F%252F%2520Some%2520condition.%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520%252F%252F%2520For%2520some%2520or%2520all%2520specifiers%252C%2520do%2520some%2520custom%2520logic%2520for%2520resolving.%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520%252F%252F%2520Always%2520return%2520an%2520object%2520of%2520the%2520form%2520%257Burl%253A%2520%253Cstring%253E%257D.%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520return%2520%257B%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520url%253A%2520parentURL%2520%253F%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520new%2520URL(specifier%252C%2520parentURL).href%2520%253A%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520new%2520URL(specifier).href%252C%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520%257D%253B%250A%2520%2520%257D%250A%2520%2520if%2520(Math.random()%2520%253C%25200.5)%2520%257B%2520%252F%252F%2520Another%2520condition.%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520%252F%252F%2520When%2520calling%2520%2560defaultResolve%2560%252C%2520the%2520arguments%2520can%2520be%2520modified.%2520In%2520this%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520%252F%252F%2520case%2520it's%2520adding%2520another%2520value%2520for%2520matching%2520conditional%2520exports.%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520return%2520defaultResolve(specifier%252C%2520%257B%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520...context%252C%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520conditions%253A%2520%255B...context.conditions%252C%2520'another-condition'%255D%252C%250A%2520%2520%2520%2520%257D)%253B%250A%2520%2520%257D%250A%2520%2520%252F%252F%2520Defer%2520to%2520Node.js%2520for%2520all%2520other%2520specifiers.%250A%2520%2520return%2520defaultResolve(specifier%252C%2520context%252C%2520defaultResolve)%253B%250A%257D PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/34240 Reviewed-By: Rich Trott <rtrott@gmail.com> Reviewed-By: Guy Bedford <guybedford@gmail.com>
