Review commit e7fa68cbadd6e43ca603a828b1799c3e6fd0de5d and locate the added node-resolve dependency and resolve.sync call using { basedir: __dirname }. Replace the redundant resolution approach with require.resolve and remove the unused resolve dependency, then run the repository’s existing checks to verify the change.

Description

https://github.com/ember-cli/create-ember-app/commit/e7fa68cbadd6e43ca603a828b1799c3e6fd0de5d introduces node-resolve but i believe it is not needed.

require.resolve is already relative to the current file, so the { basedir: __dirname } passed to resolve.sync seems to be redundant, and can simply become require.resolve with no extra resolve dep.
