feat: allow running NPM tools from execroot (#2297)

NPM tools are currently run out of external/{md}/node_modules. If the
tool loads user-provided files in the execroot, which is the common
case, then this can lead to bad interactions.

Two examples of bad interactions are:
  1. A tool that loads React and the user code too,
     hooks becoming unusable.
  2. A tool that calls into a bundler like Webpack,
     potentially bundling duplicate packages.
