lib: include ESM loader in the built-in snapshot

[joyeecheung]

Benchmark number from an ARM64 Linux machine: empty/minimal CJS startup is now slightly slower in worker but other metrics get a slight boost (because they all incur ESM loader initialization). In reality ESM loading is likely to happen at some point in the lifetime of an application especially with the growing adoption of ESM and require(esm), so real-world applications that are more than just an empty script should get a bit of speed up from being able to just deserialize the ESM loader instead of initializing it from scrach.
