The description isn't overly useful. Perhaps something like...
The `Module` object representing the entry script loaded when
the Node.js process launched.
Then include a quick example:
$ node entry.jsconsole.log(reqiure.main)
// Prints
// Module {
// id: '.',
// exports: {},
// parent: null,
// filename: '/absolute/path/to/entry.js',
// loaded: false,
// children: [],
// paths:
// [ '/absolute/path/to/node_modules',
// '/absolute/path/node_modules',
// '/absolute/node_modules',
// '/node_modules' ] }

`require.main` was documented in a non-standard way. With this PR, the previous section is left as is to not break all the possible link references inside and outside Node.js docs. A standard section is added to the `require` properties with a reference to the old description.
