src: rename --loader to --experimental-loader

reasonablytall · Trott · commit 15fb02a515bf · 2019-09-30T21:47:01.000-07:00
Renames the `--loader` cli argument to `--experimental-loader`. This is to clearly indicate the esm loader feature as experimental even after esm is no longer experimental. Also minorly alters the `--experimental-loader` docs to say that the passed loader can be an esm module.
