Caching the results of path.relative reduces rebuild times

See original GitHub issue

I did a bit of profiling with devtool and noticed that a bunch of time is spent in path.relative during rebuilds, for the most part repeating path resolutions that have already been done.

Memoizing it’s results decreases my rebuild times by about 10%. I made a little module for shimming path.relative to make this happen, cached-path-relative. But maybe it’d be best to have browserify and its dependencies use this or something like it explicitly?
