This backports the following PRs that are related to the unflagging of --experimental-require-module:

Note that I don't think this backport PR is strictly required - the PRs seem to land cleanly on v22.x except the unflagging commit has a small conflict in the YAML changelog description. This PR is mostly opened to look for regressions in v22 with CITGM.

Some regressions found:

  1. yarn is expecting ERR_REQUIRE_ESM in its tests, probably to check that they didn't do anything to alter Node.js module loading https://github.com/yarnpkg/berry/blob/33f249b6cc06db1803f03eb5f17306a23d11115c/packages/acceptance-tests/pkg-tests-specs/sources/pnp-esm.test.ts#L617
  2. Gulp tests are breaking because they don't expect the experimental warning coming out of Node.js https://github.com/gulpjs/gulp/blob/2fa4981a910d7bdedb758bd09868620c9bb21d54/test/index.test.js#L90 (I am not sure how they load the .mjs configs, though it seems they are also doing a try-catch of require(config) somewhere)
  3. 2 also happened to Jest.
  4. In local testing, I also noticed that the debug package (used by npm, etc.) has a try { require(esm) } catch { /* fallback */ } pattern here, which only gets improvements out of require(esm) support after the unflagging, but then the experimental warning would also break the output.

I think for backporting to v22.x we should probably do some changes:

a. Provides process.features.require_module for feature detection
b. Do not emit the experimental warning if it's coming out of node_modules

b would not fix the test regressions 2-4, the packages still need to update their tests which is to be expected. But at least it would not break the CLIs for end users.

As for esm, from what I can tell in standard-things/esm#883 it seems to have been broken in different ways since many major releases of Node.js ago. The regression that predated unflagging of require(esm) I found in #55085 (comment) also seem to come from some TDZ issue in the way the package is written (it relies on access to Node.js internals and seem to expect certain internals to be invoked in certain order). It doesn't seem to be very cost-effective to do anything about it on v22.

Opened #55241 for feature detection.

Added a commit from #55243 and a commit for v22.x specifically (and maybe v20.x in the future) to disable the warning when require() comes from node_modules.

I just updated v22.x-staging so this now has conflicts because of duplicated commits I guess.

Rebased to drop the duplicate commits. Also cherry-picked #55243 and #55241 from the main branch. I think for backport to v22.x it is ready, note that the last commit (silence the experimental warning when it comes from node_modules) is only targeting v22.x, as proposed in #55217 (comment) and agreed in the last TSC meeting.

This unflags --experimental-require-module so require(esm) can be
used without the flag. For now, when require() actually encounters
an ESM, it will still emit an experimental warning. To opt out
of the feature, --no-experimental-require-module can be used.

There are some tests specifically testing ERR_REQUIRE_ESM. Some
of them are repurposed to test --no-experimental-require-module.
Some of them are modified to just expect loading require(esm) to
work, when it's appropriate.

This is faster and more consistent with other places using the
regular expression to detect node_modules.

Some packages have been using try-catch to load require(esm)
in environments that are available. In 23, where require(esm)
is unflagged, we emit an experimental warning when require()
is used to load ESM. To backport require(esm) to older LTS
releases, however, this could break existing CLI output.
To reduce the disruption for LTS, on older release lines,
this commit is applied to skip the warning if require(esm)
comes from node_modules. This warning will be eventually
removed when require(esm) becomes stable.

I would recommend pulling 1435338 as well, although they land cleanly on top of that, tests are not passing:
