Description

Sometimes I use require.resolve() just to resolve paths to other resources than javascript modules.

Okay, this is not a regular import, but it would be nice if this plugin could also check these paths.

Maybe it could be a new setting like 'import/check-require-resolve': true, whereas various rules related to CommonJS imports also apply here.

Research direction
Implement a new setting 'import/check require resolve' that enables checking paths resolved via require.resolve(). This involves adding a rule to validate that the resolved path exists and is valid, similar to existing import rules.
