improved error message when missing import file

[ragnarlonn]

JS-file:

import { Counter, Rate } from "k6/metrics";
import http from "k6/http";
import https from "jadaja/http";
:
:
:

yields:

time="2016-12-01T22:15:55Z" level=error msg="Couldn't create a runner" error="Error: open /go/src/github.com/loadimpact/k6/js/lib/jadaja/http.js: no such file or directory" 
Error: open /go/src/github.com/loadimpact/k6/js/lib/jadaja/http.js: no such file or directory

Seems like this error message overall can be improved.
It was just not obvious to me that k6/http implies an include file in .../k6/js/lib/jadaja/http.js

I think you mean import ... from "./jadaja/http.js"? Or do you mean that the error message for missing internal libraries isn't great?

No longer an issue in the js2 runner, modules are handled separately from files.
