feature request: jest.requireActual

[aaronabramov]

when we patch the original require it becomes very hard to type tests.
i think we should move everything that is jest specific to jest object and have consistent type information for it

Ok for me. What do you think @cpojer?

Yap, that's gonna be a gigantic codemod incoming for FB, so I suggest adding jest.requireActual, codemodding, and deprecating the other one.

One problem you'll have with this is that Jest's static analysis doesn't look at jest.requireActual, so you have to update jest-haste-map to include that into the dependency tracking.

good point! i'll add a codemod
